Bucket seat info

Hi Hank,
You didn't say if you wanted to use stock 69-72 Chevrolet buckets or something aftermarket or new style (leather,electric, etc). 69-72 p/u trucks did have the option to order buckets instead of bench.You can use the buckets from a blazer but the passenger seat brackets had a fold-up hinge and releasing latch so that the rear of the truck could be accessed by passengers. Both blazer and stock p/u buckets and brackets can be purchased occasionally on ebay.

 

i would like to use a later model seat--as of now the cab is completely striped for sand blasting --

 

I have put Electric 6-Way Bucket seats out of a 93' Eagle Vision. They fit and look real nice. The only mods I had to do was put a peice of 1 inch square tubing to mount to the front of the seats.
