I was at a yard this week that had dozens of old school bus seats. I measured the base and their 39" approximately wide. Same width as the smaller rear seat in the rear or the drivers seat. Cheap to buy, easy to modify, if your not going for original. Now on this originality thing, I can't see GM opting to have suburban seats made in house and these seats sure are fabricated in the same manner as school bus seats. So I sent off an email to Blue Bird one of the oldest school bus manufactures in the States. Maybe they'll respond with who supplied them seats back in the early sixties.

rossboss saw a school bus picture of a suburban set up that way.
