? 68 buddy buckets in 72 cheyenne

what will this look like? Not putting back original show truck more of a resto rod look. Air bags sitting on 18/20s all white with factory trim top and bottom. Ideas please reason for buddy buckets wife kids and I could squeeze in better than factory buckets which I dont have but have buddy buckets I pickedup from teeitup 2yrs ago.

You could squeeze in wife and one kid, any more than that will be pretty uncomfortable. Heck if you have a set already get the family to sit on em and see how it works out.

I agree factory buckets are pretty much only good for two people.

Re: ? 68 buddy buckets in 72 cheyenne

I got home with my buddy seat in August.I don`t have much spare inside space due to my recent move out of my shop.I got worried about rain and took the ragged`73-up seat out of my wrecker and slapped the buddies in.Looks good,red on red.The Chevy promo models hve the 67/68 interior all the way through`72...buzzer sound...INCORRECT!!!
