Try "Original Falcon Interiors". I think their in Washington state. They recently quoted me $450 for a set. These were for my S-22 though. Mark

You got to talk to this guy and be nice and negotiate. I bought my Caliente black seat upholstery from him for 2 bucket seats and rear, including cyclone badge inserts for less than $600, also bought a center console, carpet, sunvisors and a few other items. I had no problems with him. Told him the center console was very worn and not worth the price, he gave me a $100 back on my credit card.

The problem with the guy in Washington is he has no customer service skills, the product is good. On the door panels I would get pictures from him of what he is gonna send, the ones he said where right for Aunt Lou were completely different than the originals and he cant get the correct ones. He seemed to get irritated when I told him they were wrong. Mark, not sure if your's are different than mine but he didn't have them, at least not in red. He does get new stuff regularly though so maybe.

His is a case were he could have extracted a grand or so more from me if he had only been decent to deal with. But I really cant complain about the quality or the accuracy of the covers I bought or the price for that matter.

this guy on eBay says he can make a set of panels, in other fabrics and colors, $299 for the set pictured is not too bad. I'm not too familiar with the earlier comets.http://www.ebay.com/itm/1965-Mercury-Co ... fa&vxp=mtr
