at asheville a few years ago there was a GT hawk with a late 80's-early

90's T-bird/Cougar interior, it looked right!

If you want to stay with all Studebaker stuff, you will need to find a rear seat from a 53-57 C or K body to fit without mods. The bucket seats and console from a GT Hawk will bolt right in however, all you need to do is screw the little sheetmetal mount for the console to the floor pan in the right location and everything else falls right together.

good luck,

thanks for replies most likely will not try to find Studebaker seats i will leave those for the restorers . as mine is far far from stock just trying to find something to fit with out the trial and error.

No, sir. I used Buick Riveria front buckets, original Stude rears, both recovered to my taste.

I do remember somebody using the Lincoln seats, don't remember who, but it wasn't me.

Glad you thought of me, though.

Supposedly, seats from a Lincoln Versailles are a near perfect fit...
