I need these like I need a hole in the head...looks like a great deal for those wanting factory buckets in their pickup.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I could buy the black ones for you & you could send me those 'old' tan ones you have sitting around. Black looks great w/yellow BTW....

Re: lowback pickup buckets and brackets - Mpls CL

Anybody have pics of the brackets. Will any of the bracket holes line up to a 81-87 truck. What c10's came originally equipped with buckets. I've never seen one with them in the junk yards here locally. I'm probably going with some 88 chevy buckets.

Scoti...you crack me up.

Chris, did not put seat heaters in. Decided to spend the money elsewhere on the truck

Re: lowback pickup buckets and brackets - Mpls CL

factory buckets are really nice I must say I need to get new foams though, I'll probably end up with 88-91 burb high backs If I can find any. Mine were originally high backs though.
