Thumbs up Lets See Your Seats

Tried to search but only get bits and piecs from various threads.

So I'd like to see the seats that everyone is running in their trucks. Please say what you got them out of if they aren't the stock bench seats. I've seen some talk lately about seats and figured I'm probably not the only one curious about seeing what everyone else is using and how it looks.

Thanks Guys!

So far looking good fellas.

Rich what's your seat out of? That's a beautiful interior. Mine's not anywhere near that complete, in fact it's still in the highly dismataled stage.

Thank you, except for recovering the seats, did it all myself.

The seats were in the truck when I got it, was told they came out of an 84 or close Chevy caprice.

Nice job. Funny I thought they were a bench seat possibley 2nd row seats but was thrown off by the power seat adjustments. In my mind I knew that couldn't be right..lol. Great job!

JRock - I blocked my seat up with wood, measured the front and back, then went to the u-pull yard to see what was out there. Ended up with a set of brackets out of a late 90's Chrysler mini van. Formed smooth and the right shape - well worth the $10 to me.

dmack, I think I have to remove the old brackets (ill show pic) because the driver seat covers my fuel sending unit hole, and passenger seat the bracket covers my battery box... not sure how I wanna fix it.
