I'm sure that I have the folding style seat for a 67, but will have to check on the wing-nut part. I will get back with you if it is what you are looking for. I live in the middle of Missouri. Jay

Well... depends on how far away it is and condition usually around $100.00 with no material and decent condition

rusty and broken springs = Less

"cleanish" original paint and good springs = More

Re: WTB 67 bench seats

if you don't mind my asking, what do you do with these? I assume repair, blast, repaint or p/c and upholster? Any pics of the finished product (if that's what you do with them)?

Re: WTB 67 bench seats

I cut the center section out and build custom buckets that flip forward ,I add R+L armrests ( no armrest on door panels ) to the backrest and an adjustable headrest .I still use the factory seat tracks and they bolt into the factory position .

Re: WTB 67 bench seats

Very clever! What do you do with the left over springs / parts from the removed sections? I'll bet that there are several folks on here that would like to have some of them to repair their seats before recovering them. Just a thought. Jay

How much for springs and clips? Also, I got a chance to look at my seat and the bottom is set up just like you are looking for, but with no wing-nut and bolt in the bracket hole. Jay

Let me take another look at my seat springs to decide how many / which ones I might need and get back to you. Thanks for your response. Jay

Hi , It takes 2 complete bench seats to make a set of buckets , I already have a few sets made and just bought a truckload of 67 seat frames Saturday from the Chevy truck farm to make more .You can build them with any bench seat frames I like the 67's because they flip forward . Cost ? Not much to cut them down and reweld .The cost to reupholster them all depends on what type of materials Leather /vinyl /cloth ? and design you want from mild to wild ? the easiest way for me is for you to go thru the magazines and find a design you like and I can reproduce it from the pictures or you can draw what you want. I've built Lear jet interiors from a design customers scrawled on a bar napkin !
