how rare are factory bucket seats in a '65 C10?
 

I was out looking at a bunch of old iron a farmer needs to sell/move off his back forty, and among all the old Fords was a '65 C10 stepside with factory bucket seats. I tried to get a pic through the vent window, but the wasps were buzzing around pretty good.
Just wonderin' if I should snag those buckets.
Here's a pic:

Those were for industrial use only; pumps etc. Never in any vehicles as far as I know.

I'd grab the buckets even if just for the frames to use as a core. I've heard of the 67 buckets making it into some mid-to-late '66s.

Boy they sure look factory...they aren't 67-68 buckets...I have a set of those in my '67...is there an option sticker in the glove box like the 67's?
I'll have to check.

I think they were available and RARE.They didn`t have the back pad for the center.

Get the seats if you can.

The 702 V-12 was used in the B7000. Cool looking truck.

Thanks,

I think he was talking about the V12 in trucks. I figured if I was wrong, someone on here would say so. Pretty cool. Someone should hot-rod one of those:metal:

I have seen a factory ad for a 66 GMC with factory buckets and they also advertise cut pile carpeting not the loop.

Of course grab them, figure out the rest later! Are you a old truck guy, that question should have never been asked..........and always answered yes..........LOL

Check out the rare extended cab on Ebay (Item #4621199555). Do I see the fabled bucket seats or are my old eyes playing tricks on me? This truck is from Alaska (supposedly) & has factory air? Someone buy this thing!!

Re: how rare are factory bucket seats in a '65 C10?
 

Man, I'd grab the whole truck!! That thing looks like the paint is just burned off.
