`71 Utility Buckets - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**special-K** · 12-29-2008, 09:57 AM

I took these from a Blazer in 1990.Been stored inside since.I listed these before with no interest,so I`m giving it another shot.The foam is good,they are complete,and in original working order.They just need covering.
If interested and shipping required,my zip is 21771 and I can ship Greyhound from Frederick,MD.I`d take the backs of and send each seat seperately(2 pkg) if parcel post.$150 + shipping.Price negotiable.I don`t need these.

jeremiah king · 12-30-2008, 10:52 AM

Can i get shiping to the 92025 escondido staion

garytucker · 12-30-2008, 02:29 PM

Shipping to 73703 or 73132...whichever is cheaper... or to the greyhound station in Oklahoma City at zip 73101. I am very interested as I need something just like this for my new project. Put me second in line if the above poster doesn't take them.

Utility Buckets what where they used for? What kind of trucks did they put them in? Are they mounted like bucket seats? Do they fold down?
I try to learn something’s everyday

**special-K** · 12-30-2008, 07:02 PM

Ok guys,I just checked in real quick.I`ll check Greyhound and get back later and follow the batting order.

Hey cooldudecoco,These were the most basic seat that came in K/5s.A base Blazer comes with only the drive seat.The passenger seat is the "auxilary seat" option.The back seat was yet another option.Heck,I`d be more worried about ordering the optional top.At least that way you`d have yourself a pair of roll-up windows and arm rests to boot!Seriously,that`s how it was.These mount just like the other two style buckets with the passenger seat that leans forward.The basic Blazer could be ordered with Bucket Seats which were the same shape as CST buckets.They just had a basic pattered vinyl instead of scrolled bullhide vinyl.

cooldudecoco · 12-30-2008, 07:08 PM

thanks for the info

like i said love to learn things

when is a good book coming out with all this infor ??

**special-K** · 12-30-2008, 08:45 PM

I forgot to say these are the seats that came in Panels,too.We have one Suburban that appears to have had them "optioned" according to it`s option list.They weren`t in it when this owner bought it.

**special-K** · 12-30-2008, 08:50 PM

Jeremiah,It looks like $80 will cover Greyhound.The same goes for OKC.

garytucker · 12-31-2008, 10:09 AM

If Jeremiah passes on these, just PM me and we will see if we can work it out. Thanks.

**special-K** · 01-02-2009, 06:31 PM

PM sent to Gary.No word from Jeremiah.

**special-K** · 01-04-2009, 09:39 AM

Ok,these two guys backed out.These seats that only need covers complete w/brackets are still available.These highly sought after mounting brackets are in great shape.Never sat out in weather.

oldschooler · 01-04-2009, 10:08 AM

contact (gary 70 jimmy) He might be interested. Later, Rich

cooldudecoco · 01-04-2009, 10:34 AM

jeremiah king · 01-04-2009, 10:41 AM

Thanks for quote I got sidetracked and forgot.

**special-K** · 01-04-2009, 10:54 AM

No problem Jeramiah.I know how it goes.

Oldschooler,I would have given him a shot,but I have an "I`ll take them" in the thread.Thanks for the lead.

Cooldudecoco,sending PM.I guess it`s true,"An educated buyer is your best customer."
