Replacment seats...........
I tried a quick search and didn't really come up with a good answer. What seats are you guy swapping into these square body pick ups, for style & comfort. With this cold & snow I have been in my '78 plowing snow for way to long, sitting on the factory bench seat. I'm wondering what you guys have swapped in these trucks for comfort & style.....TIA

Re: Replacment seats...........
Ones from a 88-94 chevy are very common n comfy. I just did one from an 82 gmc. Was a lot better shape.

Re: Replacment seats...........
How much headroom do you lose with those take out seats? How does the seat belt arrangement work? Looks good, and just up the road a piece from me.

Re: Replacment seats...........
Thanks guys, appreciate the ideas. At 6ft+ tall(& a gut,lol) I can't loose much room from the factory bench but would like something more comfortable for those long snow plowing days & it wouldn't hurt if it looked good to

The other cool thing is that they slide, recline, fold just as they did in the van. Makes the seats more comfortable for the family. |

Re: Replacment seats...........
No, its not my company. I should've said there is a conversion company in Phoenix that pulls these seats. The guy I bought them from is on craigslist as well. These seats have become pretty popular in hot rods in Arizona because of how cheap they are selling these seats. Hope that helps

Re: Replacment seats...........
how do you think these would work in a single cab truck for room behind the seat? etc?
