    They could be Ford maybe Falcon, the rear seat bottom is way to Low to be Stude. the front is quite close and could work in a Stude. They are for a 2 Door.

    Nice re-upholstery job.

      The style looks like 1959 Ford, but they are sort of plain to be for a full size model. The dimensions, particularly the width, will help to determine what size/series of car that they are from.
      There were no 1959 model Falcons.
      I just found a picture of a 1959 Ford Fairlane (full size model) with the same tri-tone treatment.
      They should not be junked, but it will be hard to find the correct person/car for them.

        A picture of the seat tracks may help identify them.

        I was STUDEBAKER, when STUDEBAKER wasn't "KOOL".

          They probably are not Falcon, but there were plenty of 1960 Falcons with seats made in 1959.

            Aso similar to '59 Plymoutn pattern, bought a new Sport Suburban wagon, orange vinyl with brown cloth inserts. Always thought of them as bench seats mimicking buckets.

              I thought that the U pattern on the seat back went the other way on Plymouth wagons and were two-tone, not tri-tone.

                My main point is that they do not look like Falcon seats. I doubt that there were production seats made for 1960 model Falcons in May of 1959.

                  A side view of the front seat lower cushion trim panel and adjuster knob would help to ID them.
