Bucket Seat Issue

[Raymond Thompson]

I just purchased a 72 Blazer for restoration. The rear seat is an original but the front buckets are from some other vehicle. Can anyone identify the seats from the attached pics??? They are shaped like the older blazer seats and I am wondering if seat covers for a 69 blazer would work on these seats. I've also included a pic of the mount mechanism which, I think, is original blazer???







If I can't get a blazer seat cover to work on these buckets, then I will need to find some 72 blazer seats.... Help..

The mount looks correct for the Blazer but the seat is not and I would have a hard time believing they could be shaped to look like Blazer seats unless you have a Master aphosterer in your pocket then I guess anything is possible. Seats come up for sale quite often here or Ebay and various other sites So good luck on your build .

i have some utility buckets that are in decent shape but shipping them would be a killer.

Your pictured pass. side mounts are correct for 69-72 blazer/jimmy sport buckets, the rear latching bracket has an extra piece added for mounting a non-oe seat. You could have a shop re-cover those seats (build covers), but a factory repro 69/70 or 71/72 blazer cover is not going to work imho. Here are a few pictures of blazer/jimmy seats and mounting brackets for Id.

If you unbolt the brackets shrink wrap the seats and box up the brackets separate than just ship out three packages its only $50-$60 bucks shipping on UPS
