Does anyone know what year/model these seats are from?
They're in my '73, but all the photos of new seat covers I've seen for Chargers don't have the velour bun and back.

How long have you owned the car? I'd say the previous owner had a local upholstery shop redo the seats and picked that material to match the walls at his favorite disco joint.

I've had the car for 6 mos now.  I know it used to be light blue with white top and white bench interior.  Some owner changed it from wrecking yard parts in the 80's.
I thought they might have been from a F body or late 70's B body.

They look just like the seats in my 71 Charger so I would say they  came out of a 3rd gen Charger.

from 72 untill 74 seats are the same. Only changed one of the the vinyl patterns on 74, but not the design.

In fact since middle 71   the seat structure is the same with that KIND AND POSITION of release back button. 70 and first half of 71 seat was sligthly different.

LATERS 70S B bodies are also same seats with just EXTRA PADDED covers and also more buttons ( Cordobas, Chargers, Magnums ).


Buddy, you have just a different cover on that seat, made maybe by a local upholstery by wish of the last owner.

I pulled the interior from my car today :icon_smile_big:
I found a broadcast sheet behind the rear seatback:
VIN WL21G4A214574 Does anyone own this car?
TRIM CODE B2 X9
The seats were orig white vinyl but I think the centers might have been black velour - orig to the seat, not redone custom (at least how it looks.)  Was this one of those Black and White interiors?

Was this some type of Deluxe velour seat for the 1974 WL21?

Nacho: The panels are black.

ok, if you find 74 rears in white, I'll trade with you a 73 black rears that I have in PERFECT conditions.

I think also have black seats back panels, just in case. same conditions.

If they pulled them out, and recovered them why would they have left the Broadcast sheet?
These seats were white and have been dyed black.  The fronts and rears match.
Could be custom, but like the facts point to them being real.  I don't know.
The orig car these came from had a black exterior, according to the Broadcast.  Could you get the "Black and White" interior in '74?  What would the code be?

as far I know on 73/74 you could get vinyl and cloth seats on Brougham packages, but mostly I have seen were bench. Buckets with cloths I have seen are the aztec interior  with brown and some stamped stuff on cloth( I got those buckets set up from Canada and I recovered on vinyl ). but even you get cloths buckets they had buttons on vinyl color.

White interiors I think was refferin on black carpet-dash- column/wheel-console ( is equipped )-rear tray... Rest in white, that's actually my set up....

I know there was also white dash/column-wheel and console.

MAYBE another black parts like kicks and pillars panels in black same as upper inner front windshield mold and rear glass molds.

I have known on some car like 73dodge's 73SE one ( I think he told me that when I was trading some parts with him ) that headliner sides molds, inner louvers and sail panels on black beside all black parts i posted. Never have seen more black parts that explained on all setups I posted on a black/white combo.

all seatbelts in black on al set ups. Coater hooks it could be white or black I think on any set up.

I have doubts on windlace covers colors... probably black when you had black kicks

WHICH ONES WERE CONSIDER WHITE or BLACK AND WHITE ? I don't know. I have been searching info about this when I was getting parts to my white interior ( changing from blue ) and that was what I found. Don't know about codes.

Why buildsheet still there ? I don't know. Where exactly did you found ? they were mostly between springs and foam as fa I know and on that case upholstery shops didn't care about remove that. Not even if they could be taped on back panels I think.

Anyway I'm not the best guy to know about that since I'm not in USA. Down here we didn't get different options to choose on a car. All these info is what I have collected throught the years by internet pics and stuff.

nothing about I have stated is really A FACT... just collected info

 :yesnod:
I understand, I wasn't trying to question you.  Just seeing if anyone else knew...
The buildsheet was beind the seatback of the rear seat.  You're right, the upholsterer may have left it.
Eventually I'm going to have the seats redone (not anytime soon) I guess I'll see then, if there's a Mopar tag on the seats etc.

A comparison pic for you of correct for 1971 & (??) Legendary seat covers installed a couple of weeks ago in a 1971 Charger R/T.  Yes, I was doing some "Spring cleaning", getting the car ready to go to a local show  :nana: :

Year One's site has pictures of seat covers, some models, not all.  Here is one I found, correct for 72-73 Charger Rallyes and SE's:
