Aftermarket , 70's -80's can tell more by seeing the bottoms and backs , They used to sell seats like these in the speed shops as a custom replacement to stock truck seats .Old custom van style seats with a consol . the seat tracks can tell more . Tube frames

Unfornately that's the only picture available at the moment. The seller original was asking $40.00 but told me to come get them for free. The only issue is, it's 2.5 hours north of where I live.

Unless you need a seat ,Don't waste your time , they need to be repaired and that ain't cheap anymore , they will look like a fat kid in a little suit in your truck and they are pretty tall so you'll see a lot of them from the back . You could tear them down ,Cut the frames ,have them reupholstered and have $$$ in them ? What's wrong with your bench seat ? you can add headrests and a center fold down consol with a some work and have something .

Not enough room in the cab for thiose. It'd be like having a living room sofa in the cab of your pickup, with zero adjustment.

I wouldn't waste my driving time neither, look at the drivers side seat, looks like it is bent over towards the console. I like how 68 gold put it, look like a sofa in your truck

No matter what seat you buy always measure to make sure they fit across the truck with the doors closed and that the drivers seat is centered on the steering wheel . even being 1" off will make driving your truck uncomfortable .
