Since you mention an arm and leg, replacing or repairing the foam and some springs and putting a new upholstery cover on it is less expensive than a new seat. I believe the years that you can swap with and it just bolts in are 67-72.
There are vendors who sell all new seats that will just bolt in. Some people measure and go junkyarding and get just about any seat from any make, and fabricate a piece of metal into an adapter, or drill new holes to make it fit, that works too. So you have several ways to go. I decided to go old-school and just kept my seat and had an upholstery guy repair and make a custom cloth and vinyl cover. Here's before and after: https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=731496
