Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
These aren't mine, but they are from a '68. They have the original seat belt for the center seat and the buckles for the outer seats.

Easiest way i tell on the frames is the chevy frame has the extra attaching point under the center console. Not there on a dodge.

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
Anyone know if that style of buckets came in a 1970 CST 10 SWB? Wondering if the ones in my truck are the originals or from a earlier truck.

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
no buddy buckets after 68'. You should have the sporty bucket seats if they are original. Trevor

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
Yes, like they were made for 'em. The factory bench seat holes line up w/the buddy-bucket frame holes so nothing extra needed there. The center support needs to be shortened to fit the 64's floor pan. That's as simple as cutting the original 90° end off, drilling some holes, & bolting it back on @ the correct height.... I have some going in my 64.

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
Can someone send me the measurement of the metal seat pan for the middle buddy seat? I got a smoking deal on a buddy bucket seat, but it was missing that piece. I will need to fabricate my own pan. Any help would be greatly appreciated! - Eric

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
Will buddy buckets from a 66 chevy truck fit in our trucks?

Re: Buddy Bucket Seats
Can anybody tell me how the center Buddy seat back works in a
Suburban? I bought a set yesterday and it looks like that center seat back would just flop over backwards till the top hit the floor without a gas tank to lean on, is something missing? Last edited by leddzepp; 03-07-2011 at 02:06 PM. Reason: wtb by a non-subscriber |
