$1300 is just for the frame. Add foam $700 ? Add Covers $400 ? Add seat cover labor $300 & you are up to $2700 for new seat. That is the route I would go if I wanted a buddy bucket. Or pay $1000 for used and fix as you go. A far cry from the $2 buddy bucket my friend bought at auction 20 years ago. It was the Blue Heeler's bed !
