Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
These are pretty cool.
I think they'd look perfect in our trucks.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
Nothing wrong with those! Looks like van seats.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
I had some like that that came out of a van conversion in the early 90's that I put in my 73 Dodge pickup. They were comfortable and the right size.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
They're not mine, I just found them on OfferUp listed for $75 for the pair. Thought they look like a nice alternative to buddy buckets.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
The pedestals look like they will mount to the floor ok.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
I'd say they would work pretty well for $75 lol. I would definitely buy them if they were local to me.

Re: Poor Man's Buddy Buckets?
Smittybuilt low-back bucket seats from Summit Racing; $134.99 each.
I've got a pair in my gasser, and I have a friend who put a pair in a '53 Stude he raced in the LaCarrera Panamericana road race (2,000 miles), and later a set in a '65 Mustang he raced in the Targa Newfoundland. He said they're extremely comfortable on the road. New springs, new foam, powdercoated frames, and they look right for our trucks. I'm putting a set in my '62 K10. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sm...view/make/jeep -Brad
