Did any burbs come with bucket seats? if so are the brackets the same as the trucks or the blazer? And does anyone have a set they want to sell?

Yes burbs did come with bucket seats.
They had the same seat brackets as pickups, the Blazer pass side seat lifted forward to give room to get in the rear seat.

My 68 burb came with buckets (not sure if it did originally) Let me explain. The seats look original and match the correct color, BUT they are the "utility buckets" rather than the sport buckets. This means they are the wide lowback version with the metal backing. The passenger side also has the latch/mechanism that allows it to flip forward, identical to the blazers. The foam apears to be good, but they need recovered.

...and the Sub buckets had the hard plastic covers, like the Blazer, because the backs were exposed. They also came with a center console.

i remember someone posting about 67-68 burb buckets, they are basically like 67-68 truck buckets (with the center jumper seat instead of a console), except the center portion does not have a backrest in teh burbs. i don't think i have ever seen a set of these.
