Truck Buckets And Console For Sale - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*dtlilly* · 06-26-2004, 08:50 PM

I really didn't want to sell these, I was saving them for the C-30 project.

Real factory truck buckets are real hard to find, and are different from Blazer buckets. The drivers seat obviously needs foam work and the seats need reupholstery. Skirt of frames weak. I don't have any of the brackets.

The console is a combination of several consoles. It has been vinyl painted green. There are no cracks in the base or lid. The center section has a crack from dropping it while restoring (see pic). The front has various holes drilled from previous owner (pics). The console comes with the plastic wedge that goes under the front of console, and hold down bolts, (which most consoles don't come with). Good chrome upper trim. Ash tray and bezel plate are not in best shape but usable.

Price is $175 plus shipping. I will be going to board meet in Indianapolis July 10-11, and can bring them with me.

dtlilly,you should keep them.$175 isn`t alot of money and they`re had to find and expenesive.They would be way cool in a C30.I had a`70 C30 w/11`low-profile utility bed until recently.I had it all cherry w/chromed west-coasts and Budds(Gold/Parchment int).Was a Winnebago(CustomCamper cab&chassis).Some day I`ll be able to post pics.

Tim, thanks for the support. I'm loosing money selling them this cheap, but I know my hospital stay has bills on the way. I didn't have insurance yet with the company I started with either

My plans on my 72 C-30 with the 9 foot stepside bed have drastically changed. I was going to make it very high optioned, and truck buckets are impossible to find, so when I found them, I bought them immediately. The tilts, tachs, etc are easy to find and can be purchased anytime. Now I'm decideing weither I sould be selling it now (as soon as the body man is done with it). Here's a pic of it just before I left Memphis.

Super-k

Don't know how your business is set up but I am self employed (with no employees though) and if I can't work because of a disability I could collect Social Security Disability. I used it when I had a heart attack. I think you have to be out of work for at least 4 weeks and it doesn't pay much but it is better than nothing and if not disabled for too long would still be much cheaper then workmans comp which takes a percentage of gross as payment. If you pay Social Security taxes (which you should have to) you should be able to collect. Look into it if you haven't already. Good luck anyway.
