Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
I was told they were out of a mid to late 80s Honda Car. They fit very nice. I wanted a set of buddy buckets, but at 800 plus cost of reconditioning them if you can even find them I really cant afford it. I wanted the seats to fit bellow the window line and have good side bolsters as well. Ill have to build a center seat and brackets but steel is cheap and I enjoy tinkering with metal anyways.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
I just traded a rear view mirror and some brake calipers for the ones I have. I think they look real nice for less than 50 in trade.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Well I just bought a set of BUDDY BUCKETS! I can not believe how hard these are to find in a price range I can afford. I haven't seen them yet. I guess the passenger side vinyl is pretty tore up but im told the seat foam is in good shape. I found a set and was such a good deal that I pulled the trigger site unseen. Im supposed to be getting a pic message any min and then ill drive to pick them up on Tuesday. If they are too far gone I may put them up for sale, but if not id sure like to keep them.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
post pics of the new seats when you get a chance.
To bad you don't live closer, I'd probably pick up those other seats and help offset the costs on those buddy buckets.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Here are the pics of my new buddy buckets. They are in way better shape and way more complete than I expected. Especially for what I paid for them.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Nice find. Congrats.
What did you end up paying for them if you don't mind me asking

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Awesome build I will be following for sure. Long story short I bought a set of doors for $20 then traded a guy my doors and $100 for my buddy seats. That was a pretty good day

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Picked up a very nice new repop core support from gmc pauls. Very nice fit and way easier then repairing the old. And more mock up.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Tried my hand at my first sheet metal repair. I replaced a rotted out section of my steel bed floor with an original piece I got from a board member a while back. Man you guys and youtube/tv makes it look a lot easier than it is sometimes. I must just need practice... My gap on one side got a little wide unfortunately. Im surprised that it does look ok though.

Re: 1967 C10 SWB Fleetside Project
Nice to see you got it back. I had no idea you sold it actually, but still glad to see you didn't give up on it.
