INTERESTING UPHOLSTERY TAG

Interesting upholstery tag I found today in the rear seat of my green 72 never seen one before

Wow! Looks like you have a bit of a time capsule. Probably 99% of those paper type tags disintegrated into dust years ago.

The quantity "200" is a tip-off that this was a quality tag for a bundle of seats delivered to Ford by the Vendor. One tag per bundle of 200, and yours is that particular seat!

It's a forgery, seize the car and deliver it to my property pending formal charges!

Interesting part #, C9ZB-63xxx... looks like a 69/70 part for a sportsroof....

So much for QC...

Yea I noticed that too..Definitely a 1972 rear seat for a true mach 1..and definitely the original that came with the car

Try to contact Lear Seating to see if they have any old records. They are still doing business in the Detroit Metro area.

That is a very cool find!

Scott, don't touch it, it will disintegrate

Nice find.

When we supplied aluminum grills to Ford we would do an extra special polish job on ones sent to Ford for approval much better than production. Are the seams on that seat straighter than most, lol.

I have some of the Ford Prototype tags stuck back somewhere you had to tag each part that was prototype going to the plant for assembly. Some early cars contain those parts also.
