bucket seats in a regular cab '79

Has anyone put bucket seats in a 1979 or thereabouts truck?
If so what kind of seats were they (aftermarket, or from a car or newer truck) I want something that doesn't cost a whole lot and doesn't look too out of place, like racing seats (I dont drive a rice burner) What did you need to modify for them to bolt in?
If you got picks even better

Thanks for any info.

i had buckets in my '77 f150 .. i jus went to the junkyard .. well the place that pulls all the good parts before the cars are tossed in the yard. they had about 20 or 30 different seats laying there so i just found one that would fit and looked good... anyway it was 2 buckets with a small center seat that had a fold down console when no one was sittin there .. i dont remember what it was out of. it had its own frame and adjusters and all that so all i had to do was put a couple chunks of steel from where the factory holes were in the floor to where the bolts went into the seat frame, much much better than the factory vinyl one that was othing but foam and duct tape on the drivers side.
