Re: bench seat options

I'll be interested in following where this goes. I've got an '88-'98 Chevy truck bench seat in both my '68 GMC and '59 Apache. They're fine seats, but leave a lot to be desired. I want to keep a bench, so I can haul my boys around in the old trucks. When you ask about an aftermarket seat, are you talking about a new aftermarket seat, or a seat repurposed from another vehicle?

Re: bench seat options

Find a junk yard and try out every truck seat they have to see what is the most comfortable for you.

Re: bench seat options

If you search “seats” there’s an old thread with lots of seat pics. Mostly from different vehicles that you can fit into our trucks.
