    I am hoping that someone may recognize who has made these seats in the past. They are structurally in great shape for their age but the drivers side has two good tears in the vinyl. Would like to just get covers since they are pretty damn comfortable and hate to loose them to a modern replacement that doesn't fit as well, and reupholstering is not worth the cost. If someone could maybe suggest a cover that might fit the bill, I would appreciate it. I just don't want to get into the guessing then buying only to have to pay return and restock fee's if they don't fit. Thanks.

    Those look like ford econoline van seats to me. I had a 1995 a 2002 and a 2007. I think the color looks like the 1995 version which was darker than the newer ones. You might try looking in a salvage yard - sometimes these vans get a lot of miles without anybody ever riding in the passengers seat.

    I don't know if you ever get into Maine, but... There's a junkyard in Mexico/Rumford that has 4 or 5 passenger van/ busses that were used to climb Mt Washington with tourists. The seats in those vans are almost identical to original low-back buckets. They wanted $50 each, the last I knew. I can send a pic tomorrow, if anyone is interested..
