Every now and then some factory seats will pop up for sale on this site or the HAMB. I don't see anything wrong with yours. Does the front fold up for rear passengers ?I've been keeping track of where your Burb has been. Did you buy it from Gueydan in Kenner?

The front seat is from a 60's model c10. It leans forward but doesn't give much room to get in the back seat. Would like to have something more like the original, 60/40 split. So it will allow for better access. The rear seats are a Ford van i was told. Don't mind to save the rears if i can get a new front and recover in original style cloth.

I bought the burb from a dealer in Nashville. It came from Floyd's Knob, Indiana. It was in Indiana for approx. 6 years. Before that i think it was in Georgia.

Great work!
