They appear to have the original upholstery. Metal side covers instead of plastic and the side covers are only on the outside of the seat.

I will guess they're from a 68 or 69 Torino.

while the headrests LOOK to be Ford, the side trim piece is GM looking. The thickness (or lack of size) of the seats make me want to GUESS foreign ... maybe Opel?

Good point there, Jim....the Ford seats were usually very 'thick'. I was just thinking those seat back release levers looked like a Ford product http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

the seat back release lever DOES look Ford like, the "fancy" rear panel is interesting too, the metal side panel is the odd part ...

Those are hard to come by (if anyone's looking) '69 Ford Galaxie/LTD seats!.
Probably fit big Mercs too?.
Compare w/ the pic on this below page...under the '68 Seats...
