Need help identifying a seat frame - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**ScottH** · 03-09-2015, 12:50 PM

Recently bought a parts lot & this seat frame was included. Problem is seller had no idea what it came from. It has an latching mechanism on both sides. Also there are metal strips attached to both top & bottom of seat with numbers stamped into them. I will post later what is on them.

Does anyone have any ideas what this could be from originally?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks
Scott

Just a guess but maybe 67-72 c10? I think the latches look right for those years but idk?

Thanks but almost positive it isn't 67-72, pretty sure its earlier.
Was thinking maybe even an early sub seat?

I think its an early burb as well. I have multiple 64-66 c-20 and that's not it. Hope it helps to eliminate those years.

I was guessing. Is there any part numbers any where? When did they start useing allan head bolts in seats? That's why i was guessing 67-72. Could be sub seat?

This looks too narrow for a front seat. I am thinking a burb or Blazer rear seat.

**ScottH** · 03-09-2015, 06:33 PM

Not sure about a rear seat, I'm guessing a rear one would not flip forward, but could be wrong.

Thanks guys, keep em comin.

That's why I am thinking maybe Blazer as I have seen them where the backs fold up so you can put longer items in.

It doesn't look to be a 60-66 to me, burbs had a narrow front seat, and all the burb seats had removable lower cushions.
my guess is 73-87 maybe, it has a allen bolt on the side which you don't see on earlier stuff... or is it even gm?

Yup My 64 Sub has the original seats. All three rows have a metal back on em. And the only seat that folded down was the front passenger to allow access to the back seats.

looks like a folding seat from a station wagon.
