Is that the same Ultrasuede material the 20th anniversary used?
1987 20th Anniversary Cougar, 302 "5.0" GT-40 heads (F3ZE '93 Cobra) and TMoss Ported H.O. intake, H.O. camshaft
2.5" Duals, no cats, Flowmaster 40s, Richmond 3.73s w/ Trac-Lok, maxed out Baumann shift kit, 3000 RPM Dirty Dog non-lock TC
Aside from the Mustang crinkle headers, still looks like it's only 150 HP...

Unfortunately, no...this is the green/tan stuff. I already asked him and he does not have any 20th material.

There is material similar to the stuff used in the 20th at http://www.ultrasuede.com. The pattern can be easily found...but the color, that seems to be unique. I don't know if that company can reproduce the 20th material exactly, or have it laying around. But it is real Ultrasuede, not some cheap knock-off. Royce got some sample swatches from them and he reports that the colors aren't close to his 20th.

Well thought I'd try ya never know! Guess I just gotta find someone parting out a car, keep my eyes open, got a tear in the material about 1" dia. on the driver's seat in the lower seat-back on the side bolster nearest the door.
 
5.8fastcat sent me some from that 20th he had but it was the stuff for the seat-bottom, so I checked it and it wasnt long enough that a section could be cut out and used to replace the side-bolster otherwise I would have used that.
 
Im just happy my pass. seat and backseats are PRISTINE, and Im absolutely buttstuff x 1000 about keeping em that way.
 
The search continues....LOL
