Your help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a few weeks away from re-doing some seats for my 69 Road Runner 383 column shift, split bench seat car. I have an issue though. I do not have the fender tag for the car, nor do I have the original front bench. I have what I believe to be the original back seat but the patern on the inserts on the seat look like nothing I have seen. I have looked at all of the shows, in legendary's catalog, on the internet and on hamtramck and can not identify what trim package this seat belongs to. I have looked at all body style cars and can not find the grain that is on the inserts. The seat has a tag dated 3-12-69. I have survivor 69 GTX seats that have been in the car and the demensions of the seats are the same. all of the material on the edges of the seats and under the covers are the same. I have posted some pictures. If you can identify this trim package that would be great!

I'm not totally sure but what you have appears to be a 70 Charger seat skin.

Thanks for the reply but the grain on the insert does not match a 70 challenger either.

'70 Charger. Not Challenger.

If your '69 RR has a basketweave type material in the center of the door panels, then it's the base (Belvedere) interior. Should also have non-plated armrest bases in that case, and maybe no rear armrests.
If the door panels are 2-tone and have horizontal pleats, then you have the Decor/Deluxe/Satellite interior. Might have also had buckets, in which case there will be 8 holes in the floor pan for ft seat brackets instead of 4 for a bench. Obviously no bench with a console.
If they differ from the above examples, post a pic; could be someone replaced much or all of the panels & seats.

besides bucket seats, interiors were not an option

bench seat in black -
1969 Road Runner hardtop got you H2X
1969 Road Runner coupe got you M2X
1969 Road Runner w/A87 got you H2X

Sorry, I had my panties in a bunch and was not reading closely; I have been working on the car today too and the area I'm working with always p's me off as a former owner did a hack job.

I think you are correct though; the grain on the inserts is a match to the 70 Charger. Looks like it is not the original seat. Unfortunately, the door panels in the car are from the same 69 GTX that the seats that are in the car are from.

I know my mom has some pics of when we got the car with the original door panels; looks like that is my next step to figuring out this mystery. I do know that the car was a factory bench seat car and converted to buckets. It also has plated arm rest bases and arm rests in the back seat. Thank you all!
