Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Here is what I have now. I took the 90 model 60/40 out and put 1999 Tahoe front row seats in it with 6 way electric and heaters.I bought a 72 console for it and have it being refurbished.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Still have the 71 Custom Deluxe original. It needs to be replaced. I'd like something close to original, but a seat cover seems to be one of those items you get some flexibility. Not like you can purchase an original anyway.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Could someone measure the distance from seat mounting location on the floor pan to the top of the cab? I have some second row seats out of a 2010 Tahoe and want to see if they will fit.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
My Vermillion 67 had a bench but the bottom was worn. I found a set of Procar seats on Kijiji and bought the proper mounting frame from Summitt.
My blue 67CST came with buddies but the previous owner didn't like them and sold them. I bought a set of buddies locally and I will have them refurbished. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1454523979 |

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Picked up a nice set of seats off Craigs list. Went to put them in and found that the center console extends back slightly when you flip it down so it hits the gas tank before it hardly moves. Have to try again.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Originally put these in to hold me over til I get could get my buddy buckets redone but they are so comfortable and I love having that huge console to store all my junk in, I am seriously considering recovering these and leaving them in. 2004 Dodge stratus seats, F-150 console.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
Love that seat! You bought new foam and they cut it? There is still enough cushion for the butt? Is that total custom or covers you bought? How much did that run you? Or should I say how much do you want for it?

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
My seats came out of a Mitsubishi sedan at the self help wrecking yard. Got the electric adjusters working nicely and for $70 I'm pretty happy with them.

Re: what seats did you put in your 67-72 Chevy truck ?
This is the back seat out of a 02 chevy crew cab truck. It's going to take a bit of fab to make it fit I could have spread the brackets an bolted it down but it sits way to high for my liking so custom brackets it is, I'm mocking it up in my parts truck.

skygmc, I was entertaining using a '95-'99 chevy front 60/40 bench w/ the center console. But after seeing you and a couple others using the back crew cab seat ('01-'07??)I am interested. I like the fact that these seats have the built in cup holder. I guess I am a victim of my modern cup holders. But seriously how much cutting and hacking was required to fit in your truck? looks like you made a marriage btwn the original frame and the later frame? I Had once upon a time '88-'94 40/60 bench in my '66 C10 (which is what these would be going in). Those were great minimal fab. but i sold those when i stopped driving the truck to tear into it. Sorry long story short, do you have a few more pics of what you encountered in your install?? Any feedback is appreciated as well. Thanks |
