Re: bucket seats and consoles

Oh heck yes high-backs!

Got rear-ended in a bench seat car and didn't see it coming.

Dang near tore my head off!

Add in some truck glass just inches from the back of your head and...

My console is a subwoofer enclosure that now has a screwed in cup holder on top... so yea, that qualifies as a console IMO.

Re: bucket seats and consoles

Here is my 72 jimmy with four wheel pop up camper on it. Put the original seats back in it just don't look right with the wrong seats in it.

Re: bucket seats and consoles

My truck had the Highlander Green Plaid bench seat from factory seat. It took about 2 years to source a set of original buckets, the parchment vinyl is original and the plaid material from SMS, and the console is original but was brown and I took it apart and redid it with SEM paint.
