Those would be the real deal. The Dodge seats are a lot different as you can see in the pictures below. The first picture is the Buddy Buckets in my '68 Chevy CST and the second picture is the Dodge buckets in my '67 Panel Truck. The Dodge buckets are actually better to ride in for long distances.

Re: Chevy or Dodge?

I have the exact same Dodge buddy buckets as those above....they fit fine and I like them with the narrow back for a little more leg room....

Re: Chevy or Dodge?

They are made by Bostrom and came in Chevy, dodge, and international. That’s why they are very similar in appearance and some parts are interchangeable. I’ve seen them in dodges up to 79, not sure about international.

Mine came out of a Dodge Lil' Red Express Truck. '78 or '79 I think.
