Bench Seat Pictures

I've been debating long and hard whether to put bench or buckets in my truck! If I could find an idea with a below dash console that looked good, I will more than likely do bench! I also like the look of the middle seat folding down into an arm rest! Can some of you guys please post some pics on this so I can check it out?
Thanks, Trevor

Ok Trevor,
In total contrast to Emay's beautiful alligator skin seats.
We just wanted a stock farm truck look to the interior so
here's our seat. It's out of a 2000 S-10 & fit's fine in the '50 which is appreciably narrower than later models - maximum seat width of 52 inches.

Good luck with your decision.

Have you seen this FTE FAQ article that includes seat options?

Emay, what are those seats from? Like the center fold down and how they fit below the window.
