I have some conversion seats a blue set and a red set. both should probably be recovered and what not.

I have no clue where to even start on them as far as pricing to sell.

I bought a front seat assembly out of a Centurion conversion for $300. The fabric's in better shape than yours, but the cushions left much to be desired, and they're not as fancy as yours. Given the pros and cons, my best guess is that these ought to sell for about the same price...maybe a bit more, but not too much more.

FWIW...

Nice Galaxie. I had a '66 convertible for a while but gone now, and my '68 is awaiting time to complete restoration.

A. They are not factory
B. There is a plaque on them by the company who put them in
C. I have the door panels that match with wood inserts
D. I have the overhead console that matches as well

I'll try and get some pictures of the door panels and the overhead console for you

So it's actually a 66 with a 65 nose. I have a 67 frame behind it that has been rebuilt from ground up with some modern upgrades that the body will go on with a 6.8 and some forced induction. Time and money. Time and money :sly

If they have lumbar support or electrics on them, then I'd say they are worth towards $300. I bought a set for my one truck for less than half of that in good shape with electrics for the driver and power lumbar support. But you know what, these are yours to sell and they are worth what you get for them. They look nice with the wood accents for someone who is going all 80's.

Oh wow, mine has the same style seats and unique wood cupholder in a different material pattern. Metal plate in the same spot, don't remember the manufacturers name. No wood on doors or overhead console.

Didn't realize they weren't factory... PO never mentioned anything about them

Do they mount like a bench seat or 2 separate seats with a center console? Hard to tell from the picture

Like a bench seat. There is a frame work that the seats bolt. The red set is the same way

What did your new seats come out of? If you were closer I might take a look at the red interior.
