These seats are very seldom seen. They are definitely worth something, but it's not like each one came with a gold bar sewn into it.
I'm not sure if the ad copy is correct in that it reads like you automatically got the red seat if you bought a red, white, or gray truck. I think I've seen plenty of trucks in those colors with a regular fawn seat. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. |
Re: The rare "Red Seat"
Is that duct tape on the rocker panel and fender?

Re: The rare "Red Seat"
I have a red seat in my truck that looks just like it but it has a seat cover over it. i was just reading this thread and kinda got to thinking i have never really pulled the seat cover completly off but i saw this and ran out to the truck ripped off the cover and to my what did appear before my eyes was that same seat pattern. that kinda made my day.
ill post pics tomorrow |
Re: The rare "Red Seat"
Kinda wondering what happened to the right side of the bed. That's a nasty looking repair.

Re: The rare "Red Seat"
Just curios as to exactly how rare this seat is and yes I now plan on keeping mine since I know it is not common I just want to know more about what I have. Is it rare to the poin that you guys have never actually seen one in person or what's the deal with it I'm just curious

doesnt look like a repair, looks like a hinged door for loading/unloading small livestock, maybe chickens or pigs. looks like an extra bed side is included. |

I found this at the local salvage yard. Looks pretty close.

Re: The rare "Red Seat"
Definately a red seat is few and far between but unless it is perfect it is not really worth anything.

Re: The rare "Red Seat"
One of the local guys here has 2 trucks, both have the red seat. He didn't even know they were rare when he got them. Found out about it later. Neither one is perfect, but the one is pretty decent.

I'm going to try to clean this one up--didn't know much about these until I came across this thread. This seat was in a 65 C20 I recently bought.

Re: The rare "Red Seat"
Wow, that one looks like it is in pretty nice shape.

here is a picture of my red seat. I got it done at Vics Upholstery in Tulare. It's a Variation of the custom comfort seat. the bottom panel is red and black nylon to match the red in the cab, ( if I ever get off my lazy a** and finish), and the black carpet.
