Bench Seat slider brackets ID please

[ck5566]

I have been told that these are for the 67 & 68 C10's/20/30. I have been showed pictures that they say were 67 & 68's, to me the pics I have seen are different from each other. I have also been told they might be from 60-66 trucks. So that's why I am here to ask my question. Are they from 60-66 or might they be from another year. They came off a 72 C20 and they look like whats on my 68 C10 also. What do you say Guys & Gals (can't forget the Gals)

so what are you trying to do. just try it and see waht it looks like. if you took them out of a 72 that is more than likely what they are for. 68 and 72 are basically the same body style

If you had read & understood the Title of my Thread you would know it is a question on what year is this. And for the statement on 68 & 72 are the same body style, the body styles are close but do have a lot of differences and the seat tracks are just one of there differences.

Here is some pics of the 67 & 68's, and the 69 & 70's, and the 71 & 72's, each is different from each other as you can see.

So I ask again what year are these seat slider tracks from my First set of pictures. The last Four pictures are to show the differences in the 67/68, 69/70/71/72's

Well then I guess I have two (2) sets of seat tracks/sliders for my 68 C10. Now I guess I need to know if these tracks/sliders will Only work on the earlier seats (60-66). My seat does folds down or away from the Gas tank. The seat that is in my truck does appear to be the right size and I can shut the doors so it seems to be right for my truck.

With a welder and grinder anything is possible! (Well, at least a lot of stuff is...)

I put a later non-folding seat in my '65 the other day. It came loose with a '71 C10 and had a bowtie on the cover, not sure of anything else. It's a full foam seat and the original was not.

A little cutting and cleaning/prep, some functional/good enough sheet metal stick welding, and there it is. As you can note from the welding setup, I didn't really use anything cost-prohibitive for the average hobbyist. Didn't take long at all.

I initially thought about finding out what the seat was, trying to find mounts, buying them and hoping they'd actually work, etc...didn't have to think too long. YMMV.

This may be of limited help. Here goes.
I think the sliders in the OP first post are identical to my 1964 seat sliders. I have 2 sets.

If the seat folds forward and has those sliders, then it is likely a pre-1967 seat.

This photo shows a 1967 seat I pulled from a salvage yard. It did NOT fold forward. Then again, I can't guarantee this salvage yard seat is original to the 1967 truck. However, bolts did line up correctly in my 1965 C10.

It has been stated that when the first 68's came on the market they still had a bench seat that laid down and at pre to mid year all didn't fold down anymore just the hole seat slid up to gain access to your jack. The bolt pattern didn't change from the 60's right up to the 72 models and may be beyond.

I think the seat showing here looks like it just might be from the early 50's to mid 50's. For Chevrolet's Trucks you will find a HOLE LOT'A parts that will swap from one year to another.
