Re: seats

I found a pair of mid eighties G-body seats [Monte Carlo/Olds Cutlass style] at a swap meet for $25the pair...they sit in my 70 now and I love 'em!

Re: seats

Unless I can find a 96-98 40-20-40 seat in red, my truck will get the Tahoe 2nd-row seat (leather) that is in my garage....after I get it re-colored in red.

It's a little tight but the tilt wheel helps. Definitely comfortable though!
I still use the stock belts.

Re: seats

Yessir I did...2.5" risers I made from pine and painted black. Funny but I never set up a page or took pics of the seats. Sunday I will try and get a pic or two up in this thread.

Re: seats

Back in the 80's, when I had my 67', I put a set of newer Cavalier buckets in mine. Mounted them on small block valve springs.
