I am missing my original front seat for my 60 Cadillac Coupe. I found a front seat from a 1961. Are they the same size and will it look correct in my car?

The seat patterns will be different from '60 to '61 and from CDV to Series 62. As for size and fit, I don't have my parts book handy, but in most cases the '59 and '60 are more closely related and the '61 tends to work with the '62.

Doubtful they will interchange easily. The 1961 literature touts the new body design, allowing for a lower floor, and more padding in the front seat due to the lower transmission tunnel. The bolt pattern may line up, but measure carefully first. I think you'd be better off sticking with a '60 seat. Surely, they are available...
