50th Anniversary Buckets - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok...I have one each of the 50th Anniversary bench seat styles. One Custom Comfort with two tone cloth and one Custom Sport Truck with two tone vinyl. How were the buckets done in those two options? Anyone have a set?

Here is a pic I got off the board.

Damn Mark...those are nice. I will bet the CST are vinyl and the Custom Comfort are cloth. I am going cloth since I already have some.

Hey stlookn, What exactly do yo have? From what read, you two bench seats one cloth and the other vinyl. If you don't mind can you post a pic. I am restoring a 50th as well. But mine is missing the seat. I am looking to get an idea of what they looked like.

stllookn · 11-13-2006, 07:23 PM

The weather is very nasty here but I will try to get those posted...CG is looking for them as well. The CST is vinyl and the Custom Comfort option is cloth. Check your glove box. The vinyl is much easier to get right now. My cloth has a cover that I would have to remove...and that is a real pain. I will check my picture files.

Mine is the cst, so I am guessing it is a vinyl. custom bench seat is all it says.

stllookn · 11-13-2006, 10:59 PM

Correct...I can get a picture of that one with more ease than the vinyl/cloth insert seat.

If I remember right you sold me your vinyl bucket seats attached to the 1ton.

By the way where were you Sat. at noon?

If I ever get to the 50th Im going to use a set of buddy buckets I have.

stllookn · 11-14-2006, 02:02 AM

Dennis...I thought it was last week. I am moving my office and cleaning everything so it is a mess here. I have to get this done before the weekend so I am working 20/7. I had to take a break last night and found a '67 small window fleetside on craigslist with a set of buckets! I could not resist! I had it delivered today! Like I need another project!!!!!!!!!

These are the same color as my old buckets but not nearly as nice...LOL!

That seat set up in the 67 looks like my 68 , i take it that was an original gold truck ? Dont forget i've got those 9.75's here with your name on 'em.

When your not so busy.
Later ................................ 409.
