I've got a set of 85 Firebird buckets in my Nova, seatback is nice and thin (and surprisingly comfortable for what I assume is a base cloth seat since it has no extra adjustments) which would be ideal for the truck. I should try it out one day when I got enough time and bored enough to bother.

Worst case, you find a local upholsterer that'll work with you and thinning up the seat back and restitching your leather.

Well from what I can tell they say the low back is thinner. And with it being shorter it can recline farther back. I was thinking the same for the thinning of the seat back and possibly flattening out the back on an angle. And making the head rest thinner.
