Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

I think I'm going to go with these seats instead of the later model ones. I'll probably wait and see how comfortable the ones in the Burb are before deciding, but these would probably look a little more trick.....

I can tell you for sure that the late model seats fell really good in my extended cab truck.

Yes the power seat works good. Here is the picture of the rear seat. I am using a removable center console instead of the center jump seat until the grandkids get out of the car seats.

I bet you could hinge that center jump seat on the front so you could just flip it up and let them step out.....kinda like this....

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

my mother in law has flip up seats in the middle of her toyota sienna. they lock into the floor pretty cool. but that interior is one of the cleanest i've seen. with rear shoulder belts and all. awesome

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

Rob, not many around here that i have run across. when i do see some they dont want to part with them, or they want an arm and a leg. I did fiind a set a couple of weekends ago, but they were car seat modified to a buddy frame. so i have a frame and buddy center.

Re: 67 SWB Crewcab....Building the Beast, aka Donkey!

Should keep the packing tape and all. It adds more character to an already classy build!
