Putting Buddy Buckets back together. Can someone shoot me pix from underneath?

The buddy buckets sat for a long time in peices. I had inteneded on restoring long long ago. If someone has a set out of the truck can you shoot me some pix. I need them from underneath (driverside, passanger side, console box) to see where all this hardware goes.
Thanks

Re: Putting Buddy Buckets back together. Can someone shoot me pix from underneath?

Here you go, the below hardware (pic. 4, 5 & 6) is everything needed to bolt a 67/68 buddy bucket setup back together plus a cab to center jumpseat brace. If you end up finding out that you are missing any pieces when going back together I should be able to help with any of the hardware besides the four pass. side seat riser to frame mounting brackets, currently only have enough of them for the complete seat setups onhand. Have a few original OE cab braces along with the reproed copies of the cab brace available, also had the drivers side adjustment track wires reproed and currently have a few extra 67/68 LH/drivers seat adjuster track sets with handles available along with two extra buddy seat frames which are all real deal OE GM & not halfbreeds.

I definitely need the drivers side adjustment track wires and can you shoot me pix of the original OE cab braces and the repro cab braces and prices on all that. My e-mail is bruce@kohensports.com
In the picture below what is the angle iron piece circled in Yellow.
Also the thick washers, do they go on the front or rear of the passanger seat Can you shoot a little better picture of them installed?

Classic, do yo have any cab braces left, also do the thick washers go between the drivers side outside track and the seat?

I PM'd Classic several times about the connector wire (adjustment track wires). No response. Don't understand if someone offers assistance and won't provide it. But, I can easily make my own.

I can give you the dimensions if you need them.

Mel (ClassicBowties) is a commercial fisherman and is not always on the board. If you look at his profile he has not been here in over a month. He offers assistance whenever he can and has helped many board members over the years.

I know this is an old thread But if you still have some extra buddy bucket hardware pieces I need one of the brackets that bolts the center seat to the round tube frame. Thanks for any assistance you can offer.
