recaro Bucket or bench - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have been in the process of restoring my bench seat this week and needed to take the truck to work today, the bench isn't done yet, so I put the old racing seats from my car in it. I rather like the way they look and might have to make it a more permanent solution. The bench has been hurting my back while driving for a few minutes and the recaros are so comfortable.
The upholstery on the bench was going to be the blue you see on the bottom of the seat in the pic.
So you good think I should rock the buckets? Or keep going with the bench?

A lot of people like retro fitted seats, personally it drives me nuts just cause they look out of place. If it was mine I'd try 69-72 buckets but also it's hard to argue with comfort

Not a fan of high back buckets in these trucks personally.
