I would like to get stock looking seats with adjustable head rests and some side bolstering for my 68 Vert. Or should I add head rests to the original seats? Also, I have seen comments about differences in the Vert tracks or pans or something...
Golf, when you say switching the seat tracks over, does that mean taking the old seat tracks and mounting them on the newer seats? I have never even taken the seats out of my car, so I don't know what I'm in for. Thanks.
You are correct. Taking the seats out is easy and to switch the old tracks to the new seats I think all that is required is drilling new holes in the new seats to mount them.

The 69 seat was identical to the 68 seat, except they all had adjustable headrests standard.
There is also an excellent headrest kit available.
The convertible had exactly the same seat as other Mustangs. The seat platform in the 68 CV was a one-piece item that connected the left and right rocker panels.
The headrest kit has two posts, like the 68, although the pad itself is sculpted, not so plain as the optional 68. I know where there are 2 or 3 68 headrest seats, and yeah, the price is usually just silly.
There was a Ford add-on headrest, which amazingly is being reproduced. I say amazing, because it wasn't all that nice.
