Bucket Seats

[benny70]

Hey guys Ive been browsing the bucket seat options to replace the factory bench. Id like something that had somewhat of a modern vibe, with some hip bolsters so I don't slide around, but also something that wouldn't look out of place. So what kind of bucket seats do you guys have? Please post pics! Thanks!

I replaced my bench with a more modern custom leather setup. Check out the link below and best of luck.

These came out of a 2000 Chrysler 300M. Leather, Power and Heat. $75 at the local salvage yard.

I like the style of the 300 seats, but I think I'd prefer a manual seat without the bells and whistles. And without the head rests.

I saw some nice seat at a car show this summer and they came out of a 2002 Silverado. That is the way I am going when I change mine because they have the seat beats as part of the seat. Shoulder and lap

Just remember the stock bench seat cab is not reinforced for bucket seats nor the loads of seatbelts/shoulder harnesses intergrated into the seat.

Here is a loi of great information on buckets and factory mounting points.

I agree on the headrests. They are already out. I was thinking the same about the manual seat, but I wanted the leather. They have a set in another chrysler that are cloth and have the manual track. Easily changed if I need to.

Yeah we might get the interior professionally done, not sure yet. We're definitely going to hush mat the whole cab. I did this on our 52 ford and it made a huge difference.

i love the 2008 and up seats. i think if you took the headrest off and reworked the top it would look like a modern cst bucket.

I havent made a decision myself yet, but----some that I have seen and liked are:

chevy tahoe seats
98 s10 blazer seats
96 buick riviera seats
chevy silverado seats


the s10 blazer seats and the riviera seats are a little smaller and seem to "fit" better with the size of the 67-72 truck (in my opinion)

another choice I have seen and liked was a 2008 ford f 150 bucket. I like the way they look and feel--but they are physically bigger.

Love the truck mrhorsepower. I like all the storage those console have, but I kind of want something that flows up to the dash Like the ones from classictruckconsoles.com.

I went with Audi A4 seats. got them on craigslist for $75 and had them recovered. 10 way power seats are wonderful when you have a bad back.
