Re: anybody got pics of modern seats in these trucks?
These Italian leather seats were out of a very rare 1990 Cadillac 60 Special. They are 10 times more comfortable than the bucket seats that came out my 1990 Suburban. I plan to dye them black. In terms of comfort, I highly recommend them.

I have a 93 silverado 60/40 seat in my truck at the moment. Fits good, just have to section the side rails.

Also look at 91-96 Caprice seats. Very comfortable. My 94 caprice wagon had full power, 8 way adjustable seats (both sides) that were 60/40 with arm rest that folded up for 3rd person to sit.

It's a pain to put modern seats in these trucks with the floor hump and tanks underneath

Re: anybody got pics of modern seats in these trucks?
i like your ideas guys, i love my bench too but my truck is a daily driver and so i tend to keep a bunch of stuff in it and i really really need cupholders, but my fiance likes to sit in the middle most of the time so im looking for either a seat like the ones 76stepside01 used or for a bench in which the console/cupholders fold up and hide inside the bench

Re: anybody got pics of modern seats in these trucks?
I put '96 Suburban seats into my '86. As long as you can score the factory bucket seat rails for your truck, they are "almost" a bolt in job.
Instructions on how I did it here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=529095 -cal30sniper

Re: anybody got pics of modern seats in these trucks?
Since Im not using the saddle tanks anymore, Ive thought about cutting out the floor humps and installing a flat floor like like 60-72 tucks and k5 blazers have. It would make seat swaps alot easier if I wanted to. Maybe someday in the future...
