dodge vans thru the mid to late 80's used these types of buckets, they're the same basic frames as used in the 71-72 chevy pickups.they run less than $25 each in the pull-and save by me . taken to a local upholstery shop for some foam reworking and new covers they'll look real close to the factory seats at a fraction of what the resto-guys are asking. you can simply cut the van base to the proper height and bolt in

I followed Putter's lead and used the second row seats from a Tahoe/Suburban (circa 1999).
Some pics in this thread Pretty easy install.
