Squarebody bench in 65 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Why do all the posts say you can’t fit a square body seat in a 60-66? I just put it in (no adapter brackets). Look like quick adapter barckets and it would be fine .. I’m I missing something ?

No people use many different years in our trucks. I've don't recall seeing a post that said they couldnt.

You can put what ever you want in your truck, as long as the doors close.

I use seats out of the early 90's just because they pretty bolt in with only drilling the rear holes and they are more comfy.

This is the seat in question. Wondering if anyone makes a bracket to use the factory bolt holes. Name: bench.jpg
