What are they worth because your going to have to re-upholster most all of them?

I am seeing prices of $1200.00 Seems high but I dont really know?

Thanks

They are worth what someone is willing to pay for them. Some people are willing to pay $1200 for them if they are restored and ready to bolt in

Not talking restored.........something that needs to be restored is what I am seeing that kind of price on.......

I would say about $350 to $600 depending on how much work they need. $12-1500 should get you a very nice set ready to go.

Thats what I was thinking....there is a set on ebay for 1200 buck starting bid!

400 is a decent going price for a restorable set of seats, with the right frame and center seat. i payed $300 for mine back in 2006 which was a lot then, and they were hard to find, they still are. I would pay up to 600 for a usable set, any more than that. wishful thinking is so true. Good luck though.

If unrestored that price is wishful thinking and that is why they are still for sale, lol.

Not a buddy bucket question..but

What is a stock 67 chevy long bed worth with not much rust... red and white top.....350 exchange engine with powerglide..spotless interior and not jacked with.......nothing special about anything else. Orange Red with white top with some nice faded paint..little rust on the hood/Chrome trim looks good and no dents is 5k too much?

For that kind of money you can get a new custom seat similar in style from

I traded a set of doors I paid 20 for and 100 dollars cash. I felt like I was stealing but we both got what we wanted out of the deal. I'm more of a bench guy but am going to run these just for the wow factor I guess. They are cool and rare but there just old beat up seats. Depending on the desire of the buyer these can go for a lot, I personally wouldn't pay more then 300 for a restorable set
