How did you mount your newer seat?
I now have a 92 or so Chevy bench I want to install in my 71. I know the holes don't all line up. What type of bracket did you make or use to mount yours? I want it solid and as pleasing on the eyes as possible. Pics would be great.

I drilled new holes in the floor where needed, and installed nice strong bolts with LARGE washers under the cab for extra thickness!!!

Re: How did you mount your newer seat?
Putter has the plan.
It is always smarter to use fine thread bolts on seats and seatbelts.

Re: How did you mount your newer seat?
I set the seat flat on the floor. Marked and drilled the hole. I also used massive fender washers on the under side of the cab.
I ran the seat like that for about 3 months then I pulled it out and pie cut the seat brackets so I had a little more rake to the seat.
