'94 seat in '79 farm truck?

I am always trying to put something where it doesn't belong....I need to put a seat in an old beat-from-one-end-to-the-other 79 k20 feed truck. I don't want to put anything usable in a decent truck, because I know what will happen to it. I have a decent seat out of a 94. How close will it come to sitting in there decent? I know the mounting holes won't work. I'm sure I am not the first to try, so no since in me trying if it will just be waste of time. Thanks in advance.

Its pretty easy.
Take the 94 seat tracks off, use the square seat track.
2 bolts line up in the back. Make a spacer and a longer bent up front drill one hole per side and it's done. Slider works with 2 hog rings across the rear of the seat.

that sounds simple enough. Thank you.
But I just notice the 94 seat is something like a 60/40 split power seat. Guess I will go to plan B....Thanks for the info.
