Can I see pics of late 80's early 90's seats in our trucks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am looking at getting a late 80's or early 90's bench or bucket seats for my truck. I have a source for a really nice bench that has the armrest that folds down on the driverside (kinda like a 60/40 split). But I'm unsure of how well it will look in the truck. I would also be interested in seeing buckets out of those year trucks with a factory style console. I would prefer pictures of a bench or buckets w/out headrest, as I think they look cleaner from the back window side. Do they sit high? I'm about 5'9", 200 lbs. So lets see some pics!!
Thanks,
Shawn

I have a lead on this seat. The guy is pulling it out of an 86 chevy truck, but he thinks it isn't original (note the seatbelt openings, similar to 88+ truck seats. Any idea what this seat is out of?

Blue seats are from a 90 C1500 regular cab (looking back I wish I had stayed with them).

Grey set are a split bench from a 94 C1500 Extended cab.

Thanks for the picture. I went ahead and got the Seat pictured above. The seat is perfect. It looks like it was recovered at some point, but professionally. I couldn't pass it up for the price!

This is a 60-40 bench with no arm rest.
