WA Buddy Buckets $850 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

John H. · 09-05-2015, 12:50 PM

These came in a 72, so I am not sure what year they are from. Very solid originals that look to be redone in the 70's.

Local pickup.

Too bad soo far. These would look great in my 67 with 505 dark green and teal/turquoise interior.

Some do and some do not. All can be modified to do so however.

Sold locally pending payment.

mahanian · 10-26-2015, 08:06 PM

From my experience 67's fold forward and 68's do not. But like you said they can all fold forward pretty easily.

Nice find!

Most do, and if yours don't it is easy to make them do so. Both sets I have currently do. I have had sets in the past where they needed to be modified. There are threads on the board explaining how to do it.

on both my sets one side folds and i've had some that both folded, never seen a set that at least one didn't fold. i've owned at least 25 or 30 sets over the past 30 years.

Well neither of mine fold and none of them I have ever seem fold3d... those are cool...

**68bowtie** · 10-26-2015, 11:14 PM

all 3 sets i've owned folded both sides. anyone know the story?

cypressbog · 10-26-2015, 11:26 PM

The set I have neither side fold.

**Hart_Rod** · 10-27-2015, 01:32 PM

I've had about 10 sets of Buddys, from 67 and 68 year model of trucks. One fold, none fold or both fold, drivers fold, passenger doesn't, passenger fold, drivers doesn't....there seems to be no rhyme or reason to which year received which type..... With that being said, the folding seats have a pivot bolt on each side. If those pivot bolt are super tight, the seats won't fold, at least not without extreme amounts of pressure. You can loosen this bolt and then the seat back will move. There is also an adjustment bolt that determines how far the seat will lay back. Just my $.02 .....
