restore buddy buckets

how much work and money would be involved to restore these? and i know im missing something for the center part because all i have is the pads, i only have what you see in the pics. i dont care to much for staying original so it might be better just to get some junkyard seats from something else and make them fit, and sell the buddy buckets. what do you guys think?

Re: restore buddy buckets

How much money and /or time do you got? You can pick up a repop cover from LMC for about three-fiddy. I'd guess another benjie to have the frame stripped and powder-coated. After that it's just the value of your time to install the covers.
Or you can drop them off at an upholstery shop and have them covered with exotic leathers and / or designer fabrics for how ever much you are willing to pay.

Re: restore buddy buckets

restored they are worth around $800 or so. You are missing parts that will not be cheap to get. Unless you are dead set on having Buddy buckets I would sell them and get something else. You will need cushions for those also.
