Re: Bucket seats
They probably came in your Jimmy. They are correct 71/72 seats.

Re: Bucket seats
Anyone know what year trucks required head rests? That's the break point (67ish) that I use to identify car buckets, but of course doesn't work for trucks.

Re: Bucket seats
They look like they could be truck buckets. The Jimmy / Blazer would have had plastic backs. WES

Re: Bucket seats
71-72 buckets GM truck/blazer/burb. Many seat backs are broken, missing, or replaced after all the years. I have a set of buckets that someone made the backs out of 1/2" plywood and they did a great job reproducing the factory look.

Re: Bucket seats
Dave, the model year 1992 is when the General put headrest on the seat of pick up trucks.
