Bucket seats
Can anyone show me some pics of the differences between the bucket seats and console between the 69-72 model years. I want to put buckets and a console in my 71 Super but want to make sure I ma looking for the correct buckets and console to begin with. Thanks guys!

Re: Bucket seats
I have a folder of interior pics on my old computer that's being fixed,so can't show any.But,I can describe them.The consoles are the same.The difference between 69/70 and 71/72s are in the scroll detail abd the shape of the backs.The 69/70 scroll in the inserts follows the outer border and turns to go side by side down the center.The 71/72 just goes around the outer edge of the insert with pleats in the center.The 69/70 seat backs are tapered inward and the 71/72s are much straighter with more rounded corners.They appear to be fuller,or thicker front to back (at least in my eye).

Re: Bucket seats
I saw a set in a 72 Super that looked thinner in the back area which would be great for me. 6'6" and 240lbs. The seat back in my super now with the bench is a little too thick for my comfort level.

Re: Bucket seats
I'm surprised nobody has shown any pictures.I hear ya.These trucks don't allow much room for taller guys.
