Bucket seat choices
 

For those of you that have installed bucket seats, what did you use? Right now I have a set out of a Cavalier but am undecided.

What ever you use it has to have a low (shoulder high) back that is pretty straight up and down an doesn't lean back too much or you loose too much leg room along with having a seat that looks like it doesn't belong there.

Take a look in an early 90's Grand Caravan the next time you are in the wrecking yard. They have front buckets on pedestals that are held in with 4 bolts that go in from the bottom . The bases have plastic storage boxes that are usually busted by now but you could cut a slice out of the base and weld it back together real easy to adjust the height.

I used a pair out of a 1990 lebaron in a 1941 I built last year, had them recovered of course.

I am using 3rd row tahoe leather like orge (sp?) shoulder Seat belts are already there. Headrests are there and they dont block rear window. Its fits perfectly. just weld up a rack . seats click in and out. These are not traditional buckets but they are supper comfortable.

i used 07 ford fusion seats, chopped 6 inches and headrests removed
2nd and 3rd pic shows before/after chop
4th pic is my headrest, ogre is tall :D

not the cheapest option due to recovering them
seats are very comfortable for long trips and have held up well after 8 years and 36,000 miles
