Looking for pickup buckets? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Another board member (who mostly frequent's the 67-72 side) has a set for sale. They are pickup buckets out of a 77 Chevy Sport. Take a look at this thread:

Many will confirm that those seat tracks are hard to find and sometimes sell on Ebay for plenty.

I thought the hi-back bucket seats don't fit right in a regular cab truck?

They put them in factory, so I'd say they fit...

Why are the seat brackets different? only one of them looks factory with sliders. The other looks aftermarket or something.

With factory buckets in a pickup, the passenger seat doesn't move. That is the way the factory did it. My Gentleman Jim has factory buckets and that is exactly the way its brackets look.
