i recently bought a wrecked '71 jimmy so i could do a disc brake conversion on my '69 blazer.when i got it home i noticed it had a different style of bucket seats (compared to my '69).they look like 67-68 buckets to me.on the jimmy option list in the glove box it says-1AN3AE heavy duty aux seat.i have some pics of them at http://photos.yahoo.com/tljohnsonjr any info y'all might have about these seats would be appreciated.buckshot.

The cheaper model blazers used the more squared off seats like you have in the pic. Only a drivers seat was standard, the AN3 option was the passenger seat. When you got the CST trim you got the more curved top seats like you see in 69-72 trucks. I believe this is true.

Your seats will probably have a metal rear covers on the back of the seat instead of the plastic that the more deluxe seat has.

Would there be any market on these style of seats? I've got two sets in the shed.

Actually, those are just like the "Heavy Duty" seats that came off my 70 Jimmy. If I remember right they were both an option and you could get just the drivers seat or both (aux). Best guess on value would be about $100 but you have to find someone who wants those seats. Most people like the stock ones.
