Thanks for the link. Sadly, i cant afford nor need all the seats, just the driver seat. The back is perfect and the passenger seat is nearly perfect. Do you know where they just sell the driver seat? I checked ebay but didnt find anything.
This past weekend on TNN (or Speedvision), and it was either "2Guys Garage" or the show with the guy who always is beating down Ford stuff / does lots of Chevy big block episodes. They were doing a Mustang called "Project Nightmare".
Anyway they were doing custom leather seat covers that came from a company that had hundreds of color combos. The ones he did had a custom embroidered seat back. I wished I wrote it down as unless anyone on here saw it I know this isn't very helpful..

I recently saw a complete set of new seat covers (leather) for around $400 (front seats - upper & lower), in one of these Forums, but the Search function isn't much help in finding it.
I just found it, on the SCOA Forum (For Sale). It's dated Mar 3, '04, and is only the seat backs ...

I think the name of that company on "horsepower TV" that you saw was "Catskin". Yes, they were really good looking when they finished, and it was quite obvious that the quality was much better also. Although, quality isn't too hard to beat with Ford's stock leather on the SN-95.
Do an internet search under the name and you should be able to find something.

katzkin i think it is.
Thanks a lot Dan. I emailed them and hope to get a response soon. That is exactly what i was looking for and looking to spend! :thumbsup:
That's not too bad vs. ordering from Ford. When I 1st got my car I thought since it was a super rare cloth option I would get some stock seat covers ahead of time to keep for a resto. When I priced them each seat cost was about $700-$800 APIECE !! FOR CLOTH!!!
I thought screw that -I'm not keeping it stock/concours anyway.
All I have to say is...when they were done on horsepower TV, those seats looked like the quality of an import. They looked really good. Cool thing also, is that you can have custom stitching on the cover if you want with a logo or lettering.
Ever thought of changing the seats? I just put in some 03 cobra seats in my 95, and they make a huge difference!! they are a little expensive, but I found someone selling cheap (he didn't want to ship them) but the price of new skins seems crazy and in the end you have the same seat, jmo I paid $600 for my 03 seats!!
03 seats would be neat, I'd love to have some myself, but I'm afraid that they might look a little goofy with a tan interior...
Yea, thats what i am thinking. I would get all new seats if i could afford them, but my engine completely drained my money supply. I have a couple hundred dollars from my birthday specificly for seat leather.
$600 for 03 cobra seats is a damn good deal though, congrats on snagging those.
They would probably be hard to find, but I think some of the 03 seats have a tan insert. I didn't pay attention to you having the tan interior, I have black so the seats look great!! And yeah $600 was a steal for the set, the guy didn't want the hassle of shipping so I drove 45min to pick up the seats, couldn't be happier!!
