Talking Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

Here's my 2007 Silverado buckets I had recovered in black and medium blue tweed material, the center jump seat is from a 2004 silverado....I had one of my work foreman's wife embroider the "Punisher" skull on the seat back, I like it!!!!! Enjoy!

Not usually into the custom stitching , but these are very nice! kind of a modern buddy bucket. Thanks for sharing , got to look at these dodges a little closer now. Any pictures of the mounting?

Still have the 71 Custom Deluxe original. It needs to be replaced. I'd like something close to original, but a seat cover seems to be one of those items you get some flexibility. Not like you can purchase an original anyway.

Where did you score the seat cover? Looks close to original. OregonNed's looks the same.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

Could someone measure the distance from seat mounting location on the floor pan to the top of the cab? I have some second row seats out of a 2010 Tahoe and want to see if they will fit.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

My Vermillion 67 had a bench but the bottom was worn. I found a set of Procar seats on Kijiji and bought the proper mounting frame from Summitt.

My blue 67CST came with buddies but the previous owner didn't like them and sold them. I bought a set of buddies locally and I will have them refurbished.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

Picked up a nice set of seats off Craigs list. Went to put them in and found that the center console extends back slightly when you flip it down so it hits the gas tank before it hardly moves. Have to try again.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

Originally put these in to hold me over til I get could get my buddy buckets redone but they are so comfortable and I love having that huge console to store all my junk in, I am seriously considering recovering these and leaving them in. 2004 Dodge stratus seats, F-150 console.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

This is the back seat out of a 02 chevy crew cab truck. It's going to take a bit of fab to make it fit I could have spread the brackets an bolted it down but it sits way to high for my liking so custom brackets it is, I'm mocking it up in my parts truck.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

Have the original Green Plaid Highlander bench in my truck. I picked up set of buckets and console ( the white with grey insert in the pics ) and am going to get the green plaid material and have it stitched into the buckets. Then will have original buckets with parchment coloured console and Highlander Green Plaid in my truck. I know, only the Blazers/Jimmys came with the Highlander plaid buckets.

Got these at the local Pull-a-Part for $40.00 a piece. They are aftermarket rear seats from a late model suburban. They are very comfortable. Got the console from the same burb and added the cup holder.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?

I got some front buckets out of an 04 mercury mariner (ford escape) heated, leather and power. Also grabbed a center console out of a 04 dodge ram for the extra seat.

It took a lot of fab on the brackets to get it to sit low enough but they turned out great and so comfy.
