67/72junkie, you can compare them to the pics found in this thread, plus it will give you some good ideas on how to refinish the seats (that is if you plan too). The seats look to be in awesome condition, nice buy!

That frame looks alot closer to the chevy frame than the dodge frame MSGROSS and I have. here is a pic of the chevy frame. Check out Mikes Build thread (MSGROSS) he has some pics of the frame differences as well.

IIRC, I thought someone on here said that the center seat back for the Dodge buddybuckets was more square at the top than Chevys? Also, after checking out the ones I got, the seat frame is higher, and the mount holes don't align with the holes in our trucks.
