seats for blazer

i have been looking to buy a rear seat and front buckets for my 70 blazer for a while now. i found a guy that is willing to sell me his for 350 for the front and the back and the spare tire mount i was wondering if this was a good price. also he said he had the original sheet metal backs for the front buckets. i didnt know that they originally came with sheetmetal backs i thought that they came with the plastic backs. if anyone has a picture of these that would be great. thanks

Re: seats for blazer

Sounds like they may be utility buckets. I'm pretty sure these were steel backs. I think 350 for all the seats and an original tire carrier is a pretty good deal as long as the foam is decent and the frames are solid.

Re: seats for blazer

Utility buckets have a more square, wider back and metal backs with a square pattern in them. They were used on more more base model trucks. They can look really good recovered.
