Slick Looking Bench Seat - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I love this bench seat I saw at the 2010 Dallas Autorama in a 67' C-10. Been trying to figure out if it's totally custom or is a back seat from a newer vehicle.

My upholstery shop told me that what they do is cut and mold the foam the upholster the seat...look at the one below that my friend has in his 72c10....

That looks like it may be a Tea's Design seat.

Anybody know what kind of door panels those are and what year they'll fit??? I thought i saw those in the lmc cat but thought they said only for 71-72, i didn't see what the difference was but figured i'd ask! Don't mean to steal the thread austx68

That's what I was thinking...

Possibly Rod-Doors but they have closed their doors, literally.

Yea its an old couple who owns it and they are super nice. I met them at Austin Heat Wave last year and talked with them for over an hour. I took about 20-30 pics of that truck. It is CLEAN. They were interviewed by the local news station. Here is a link http://news8austin.com/content/your_...78&ArID=247730

Be sure to view the video to the right of the story. If you want, I can post the pics of the truck.

But spending $50,000 is just a tab bit outside of my budget

Thanks for posting that news link. I looked for the owner when I was at the Dallas show but they weren't around. I would have never guessed they would be senior citizens.

Here are some pics that I took of the interior at Austin Heat Wave 2009
For all of my pics on 'Sweetheart' here is the link Sweetheart

WOW I love that interior one thing I am not crazy about is the chromed glove box and the gold trim around the gauges other than that

AusTx68 · 03-15-2010, 12:59 PM

Great pics! I'm drooling for that bench seat!

I agree with the Tea's Seat suggestion ... http://www.teasdesign.com/

Does anyone have any links to some nice interior/upholstery for these 67-72 trucks. I am ready to start mine and I am wanting to go with white and possible houndstooth. Problem is everywhere I look I cant find matching visors, seat covers, and door panels in white. I know I looked at Classic Parts of America. Anyone got anything for me! Thanks guys!
