Finally--got some bucket seats - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I went to swap meet in Belton Texas Saturday. not a lot of parts for our trucks there. met a man with a truck for sale and he said he had some bucket seats at his shop about 30 miles away. anyway I met him there later in the day and could not believe what I saw. he has over 100 67-72 parts trucks some running. he buys ; sells ;repairs; restores 67-72 TRUCKS. any way I got the seats I have been wanting for years. he does not advertise or do anything online. I will be going back soon.

I like the lights, what are those late thirties/forty f*rd lights?

1968aj · 12-21-2014, 12:57 AM

Nice, but there's a reason seats are high or have headrests. Same thing with 3 point belts.

I have dealt with Larry a few times. Great guy. Dad bought his 71 GMC from him years ago, since sold. Ive bought a lot of parts too. Still wish i ha dpicked up one of several swb fleet beds he had for $1k years ago but didnt have the cash at the time and had a good step bed.

I have a nice complete swb bed . I don't know if I will keep it. I have 2 stepside trucks and may change one of them.
