Calling seat police
I came across these at a sale. Iwas wondering if they can be identified.They were so cheap that I bought them. I guess some old lady's now deceased husband had a Porsche and they were cleaning out his stuff.

a bit ragged, but i bet you could get $1500-$2000 as is, and quite a bit more if you repaired the covers. the headrests are generic early 911.

Narrow centers on the backs look like 70-73, if that's basketweave in the centers, you can narrow it down to 70-71.
I just sold mine that were in a little better shape for $2000 and the buyer was very happy to be getting them for that price. He's on this board and deserved them, I didn't ever advertise them. I just got a hold of him and said here's the deal. Yours will go for similar money. |

Well, I never go to tag sales anymore...alll I ever saw was china dogs and velvet Elvis paintings! Glad to see you made out. They are indeed early sport seats and are quite sought after. Clean them up and/or do some refurbishing and you will do very well.
So, kill us all here....what'd ya pay? (The cats already out of the bag...we just want to know the color of it! ![]()

everything appears to be there except the one headrest, they don't have double locking sliders so they are 69 to 71 style sport seats, I'd say based on what I can see in the pictures they would have to be redone so about 2,000 although I have seen people pay more, when stuff shows up on e-bay these days all it takes are two guys that just got to have them and people start bidding crazy money.
