Buddy Buckets
 
Today I went to the Sunflower Swapmeet in Wichita KS, and saw a great black redone set of buddys for $750. :metal: Did I pass up a good deal or not??? and what are typical prices for buddys in all condishions?

$750 is a decent deal if they were truly GM buddy buckets and if they had the GM frame.

Good point...Some people get the Dodge Buddy seats confused with GM Buddy seats...Although most people wouldn't know the diferrence. $750 sounds like a decent price.

I saw the same seats. Some thing look funny about the Frame. I think they section the middle seat/console so that it could be removed to give the apperance of just have buckets. I gave $600.00 for mine

$750 if it's true BB's is a good price. Considering 4 new quality cold cushions alone are $500 and quality covers are $300- $400. Add the rebuildable core with frame($200-$300) and labor to put it all together easily can get $1200 invested. But remember the comfort of BB's are so much better than stock bench. It removes that what I call tail bone or seat bottom effect you get after two hrs of riding on the bench.
