Folding bench seat [blue vinyl] from my '67... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am going to get buckets for the stepside and it's time to get the bench out of the way to do some interior work. It has two pretty good sized tears in the seat but everywhere else it's in really good shape. $100 firm...pick up in Terrell or I can bring it to Dallas [eastern half] during the week.

Kelly- was 67' the only year for folding seats?. Just curious because I have one in my 70'.

I have no idea, I was surprised to find this one to be one of the folding seats, I had never seen one...my '70 had the other bench.

About 4 hours north, I am 30 miles east of Dallas.

i believe 67 and 68 are the only two years that had the folding seat, not very safe. nothing locks it into place which is why gm probably changed them.

There are literally millions of non-locking buckets in many GM cars, never heard of any of them being unsafe for any reason.
