Help identifying bench seat

Does anyone have an idea of what type of truck this seat may have come from?

I thought it was a 70's or 80's Chevy pickup, but in looking at LMC's catalog, these trucks appear to have the adjust handle on the left of the seat.

I might try to modify this seat to fit the 71 C10, but I want to try and figure out what it's for if I want to order new foam or upholstery at some point.

Is this even worth trying to fix/modify or should I junk it? It doesn't look bad from the top, but kinda scary from underneath.

I'll have to add a photo of the top of the seat later. Can't find it now.

Thanks!

Thanks, not familiar with the square body at all. Will have to keep looking.

Rick, Thank you for the information. It is really helpful. I will reach out to her and ask her what truck this seat is from. I see the same seats in her post, just not sure which vehicle it is from.

Does anyone know how difficult it is to modify this seat to mount in a 71 C10? I kept the track mounts for my original seat. I wish I had held on to the seat, but oh well.
