Looking for seats to go in my 55 GMC

What I have in there right now is complete junk. Its the frame of the seat with springs, most broke and foam over it.
Is there a site that sells complete kits?
Or atleast the frame and then I can take it to a upholster

Lastly how much can I expect to typically pay to have a bare frame all done up with nice leather.

Re: Looking for seats to go in my 55 GMC

When I bought my 55 Chevy it had Fiero buckets just sitting on the floor. I ended up buying a bench out of a 1988 Chevy and it looks good. Removing the headrests kept it below the back window.

The frame will bolt right in?

You'll hav to drill new mounting holes but the frame fits nicely between the "humped" cross bar sections. Picture doesn't really show how it mounts, but it fits and was very inexpensive.
