Buddy Buckets
Today I went to the Sunflower Swapmeet in Wichita KS, and saw a great black redone set of buddys for $750.
 Did I pass up a good deal or not??? and what are typical prices for buddys in all condishions?

Re: Buddy Buckets
Restored for $750 is a good price.

Re: Buddy Buckets
$750 is a decent deal if they were truly GM buddy buckets and if they had the GM frame.

Re: Buddy Buckets
I saw the same seats. Some thing look funny about the Frame. I think they section the middle seat/console so that it could be removed to give the apperance of just have buckets. I gave $600.00 for mine
After reapolstery

Re: Buddy Buckets
$750 if it's true BB's is a good price. Considering 4 new quality cold cushions alone are $500 and quality covers are $300- $400. Add the rebuildable core with frame($200-$300) and labor to put it all together easily can get $1200 invested. But remember the comfort of BB's are so much better than stock bench. It removes that what I call tail bone or seat bottom effect you get after two hrs of riding on the bench.
