WTB: 73-75 Bucket Seats

Or 76-77 bucket seats.
Looking for seats and maybe console, see pic for style I'm wanting.
Picture borrowed from board member.

Have a pair of 68 Camaro buckets for possible trade.

Yes, I'd like to put that style seat in my 84 shortbed.
Not sure about how or what brackets will fit best.

Finding seats with truck brackets is extremely hard. As said in other threads, look for 73-77 k5 blazer seats which are identical. Then get ahold of ken Whitman(chop shop squarebody) for some of his trucks brackets.

Appreciate the info! I now see some of his products on Ebay.
I'm fairly knowledgeable about 69-72 buckets but have a lot to learn about these seats/trucks.

Yes pictured they are 76-77. And yes 73-75 had more rounded corners. The other difference is the spacing at the rear rivnut for the rear mounting bracket. 73-75 is spaced at 3.75 inches, 76-77 is spaced at 5 inches. This is important when trying to figure out truck bracket setups but you can always move the rivnut

I have those Buckets & console, that you have pictured. They are here in Ohio now. My plan is to restore them, which I have already started. If your interested in them, contact me.
Here are a few pics of them and what I have done so far.
