CA WTB: Middle Seat from Buddy Bucket Setup - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

cpavelko · 01-21-2013, 06:11 PM

Hello,
I already have regular bucket seats on my blazer and was hoping to get a middle seat base and back from a buddy bucket setup that I can adapt a braket and place in between the factory seats. Would anyone have one for sale? If so, a width dimension would help.
Thanks,
Chris

What is your price range?

cpavelko · 01-22-2013, 05:15 PM

It depends on the condition oviously but $50-$200 depending on how close it meets my needs.

Here is a pciture of my front seat that it needs to match close to. I would probably want to recover one to match.

I found a "Buddy Seat/Console" on EBAY for a friend of mine from a late model Chevy Pickup/Tahoe/Suburban. It has the mounting brakets on it and a provision to mount a seat belt to it. See item # 130843014445 on EBAY to see what I am talking about.

Thanks Charles for the info. I've seen these before and considered using them. I like the vintage of the old buddy bucket to match the front seats but was once considering taking the later model middle seat and recovering it to match.

I have seen original Buddy Bucket center seats for sale by themselves, but they are hard to find that way.

I think I like the dodge middle seat better than the chevy seat for the application I wanted:

I considered buying a whole buddy bucket setup and recovering them but it doesn't seem like that they fold foward far enough to get to the back of the Blazer. Think just putting a middle seat to match the existing stock buckets would be the best option. I had a '79 Bronco with split front and rear bench seats that were great. A little bit more rare in the suv's vs trucks. Another option is taking a split bench seat from a vintage 2 door car but not sure how that would work out either.

Bump. Also was looking for a '71-'72 bumper (WTB) or WTT (locally perferred) the '70 bumper thats rechromed with new repop brackets.
