I'm with Bentworker.  Recaro is the way to go.  I've had mine since 1983.  Several hundred thousand miles later and a couple of re-upholsters of the driver seat, I can comfortably drive thru a full tank of gas and not have a sore butt.  Passengers often comment on how comfortable they are.  Not cheap, but you should not need another set any time soon.

LMR makes a brand new seat that mimics the Foxbody seats.  Not a bad price for a pair:

Fox Body Factory Style Sport Seats - Black Cloth | (79-93) (lmr.com)

Those look pretty good but they, apparently, do not have the power lumbar support.  I rebuilt a set of 89 Fox seats and covered them with TMI upholstery in the 66 Pony pattern.  Also installed all new TMI foam.  We have around 40K on them and have done a number of 400 mile days and a few over 500 without complaint.  
I know you said you didn't want any later model Mustang seats but, honestly,  you could do worse for a driver.  If you are going racing, well, that's a different story, I guess.

 

Yeah, they are definitely spendy, but I do believe you get what you pay for.  Recaro is an OEM supplier, and I don't think any other aftermarket seat company can claim that.  So the design and materials are on par with an OEM seat.  Another factor is that Recaro has 3 factories (Germany, USA, and Japan).  Most of the other stuff you buy is going to be made in China.

I will say I love mt TMI sport seats, but I think they are only available in vinyl and possibly leather.  I didn't mind because the car had a vinyl interior from the factory, so I was just keeping it period correct.  I went with TMI because they had seats with horizontal pleats.  Every other one I saw was vertical.  All the pleats in a '67 are horizontal, and I wanted seats that looked like they belonged. 
 

It would not surprise me, because the style of those seats is very similar to other OEM seats, which I know were made by Recaro.  In fact, thinking about the Recaros in a BMW 3 series Alpinia built around the same time as the Fox cars the primary difference is that the BMW seats were covered with leather.  The layout and adjustment for both seats as I'm thinking of them seem to have been identical. 

There are cars you can harvest non-airbag Recaro seats from, but they are hard to find.  Best source is a 1980’s BMW 320is.   Used to be able to find them in the junkyards 20 years ago, but now they are hard to find.  If you research used Recaro seat pricing you might come to the same conclusion I did and just buy new.  They seem to hold value.

That's about what I paid for my Mach 1.

I like the Recaro Expert seat. I do not like the price.

I am looking at something less expensive. I am considering the Procar Elite Lumbar DLX. Price for one black velour seat with tax, shipping and 5% off is $659.00.

I'd research reviews on those seats.  If they are good then I would probably buy them. 

Yeah, I hear you. Reviews look good.

If you are still kicking around the idea of Recaro seats try calling some Recaro Dealers. I bought mine from Griffin Motorwerke in Berkeley CA. You should be able to get plain old experts for 1200 ish. They also carried direct fit seat adapters of good quality.

Also if you are West Coast I am smack between SF and Portland if you want to sit in some.

Sitting on my butt in Scottsdale,AZ(Phoenix,AZ). I have spent my ransom share of 1966 Mustang related items in the last year. I am spending more than I am earning, since I am retired.  I am trying to scale back, but sometimes I cannot help myself and get carried away. I have not ordered from anybody else yet, and know Recaro is the way to go for a soft/comfortable ride. But am I willing to spend that money? I wish I could sit in a Recaro and a Procar seat! I already know the outcome. But is it worth the extra(double) money?
