Can you identify these bucket seats? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Vince M · 01-08-2008, 04:51 AM

They look to be mid 70's but I'm not sure. Anybody?

**special-K** · 01-08-2008, 05:07 AM

I can`t say the exact year,but you are right.I know that chrome square was on the bench seats,too.Those are cloth,right?

**jerry moss** · 01-08-2008, 06:07 AM

they look identical to the seats in my 77 blazer

I have a pair the same exact style only brown vinyl. Someone told me they thought they were Camaro, but I don't have any way to verify it.. Maybe a guy could find some interior pics on the net. If you find out somewhere other than here post it up.

The height of the brackets will tell if they`re car or truck seats.

73 to 77 chevy truck or blazer I had the same ones out of a 73 truck. Take a picture of the seat tracks.

With the right seat cover kit a good Upholstery guy can make those look exactly like 69-72 buckets. I will post some pics of mine when I get them back.

is gary doing them for you?

From my old memory archives as an auto upholsteror they are from a Chevy or GMC Blazer 1973 and up. One of the seats should have a flip up mechanism under it for the passenger side.

Here is a picture of one of mine (excuse the dust and bird poop). I'm pretty sure the second picture is one of the seat bases. Neither of them tip forward and I would say that style base makes mine van seats.

Yes he is!

**special-K** · 01-09-2008, 01:28 AM

Yeah,those are van bases,Doc.I think trucks had buckets through`78.

Vince M · 01-09-2008, 02:13 PM

Thanks for the help. They were (are) on Craigslist local in Orlando and the price wasn't bad. I thought they would be a nice change from a bench if they were correct.

cdowns · 01-09-2008, 03:28 PM

i have a pair listed in the misc for sale section they're free

**68350** · 01-09-2008, 07:28 PM

Look exactly like the ones out a 76 blazer. If you do decide to put 69-72 covers on them, you have to trim the foam on the backs on top. These have a wider top than the 69-72 buckets. Nice find, btw.
