Don't have pics of them, but when my brother puts a new interior in his 90 F@rd Mustang, I'll take his old seats, reupholster them in black (probably leather, but if I can find cloth I might use it), and toss them in my truck. They're very comfortable.

THESE SEATS ARE IN MY 69 TOWTRUCK. THEY ARE OUT OF A LATE 70s TO EARLY 80s JEEP LTE GRAN CHEROKEE , & ARE WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST COMFORTABLE SEATS I'VE EVER OWNED.
THESE ARE OUT OF A 95 MAZDA. THEY ARE FOR MY ONGOING 71 SHORT FLEET PROJECT. THEY ARE ELECTRIC ALSO.
I'VE GOT ABOUT $400 IN EACH PAIR TOTAL. THATS BUYING THEM AT THE BONEYARD & HAVING THEM RECOVERED.

Bought these seats at a swap meet about year and a half ago. Managed to re-work some original bench seat brackets to mount them in the original floor pan holes. Spent enough money fixing all the holes in the truck and didn't want to drill new ones.

John, you hit the Nail right on the head, those you the same seats I picked up the other day out of a 70 or 80 something Wagoneer, Its kinda funny I went to a junkyard that has set prices, the kind you have to be standing there when something good comes in or you totally miss out, however I guess these seats just got overlooked by everyone cause even the guy who ran the place didn't even know they were there,on this set only the driver side is power operated.But on the very next day I went to another yard that crushes just about everything that comes in that very same day, unless its something the owner of the place thinks would be worth something, He has a good eye because he keeps all the old stuff,anyway to make a long story short I found another set of those jeep buckets this set however both the driver and passenger side are six way power operated and the killer is these were even cheaper than the first set.My gets one set and I will keep the dual power set.
