Guys,

Moving right along with our '56 build. Bid question ?

Can anyone give us some info and photos of their front seat choice . Looking for Bucket Seats with Console . Everyone that looks at someone's Hot Rod pokes a head in , so we want a LOOK !!!!

Saw a lot of cleaver ideas @ this years Super Nationals in PF, but never asked a specific question about what make, model, year of seats ?

I'm sure there is a herd of ideas coming our way !

Standing by,

 

I'm thinking of going with the Honda Odessy route, there is a vendor on ebay that sells them. They are the 2nd row and are brand new because they do handicap renovations,and you can usually get any color they come in. L8R ZFLASH

 

Thanks, Good luck with that choice.

 

I went the Honda routine and am very pleased with the seats however I have not found a console that fits between the seats in the 48.

 

Hey Chuck. I just requested permission to view your built link!! Hope you approved me

 

I got some 2006 F150 seats. Liked the fact that they had built in seat belts. Driver side is power. Don't have them in yet.

 

2001 chrysler 300 seats.... right now they are mounted on top of two refridgerators in the garage (only place I had room for them... starting a search for a console to match... both are power and heated..

Budget seats


Hardcore



The livingroom loveseat



the best console ever

 

Very good ,we'll look at this option

 

That is the look, we will be reviewing our options with this combo

 

ChuckRob, I just picked up a set of the odyssey seats last week for my 48 F1. Do you have any details and or pics of the brackets you used for yours? I've got a visual in my head for what I want to build for a backet, but yours looks ar simpler. If you have details of what you built or bought for yours I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
Ralph

 

Very nise clan look,we'll put this post in our options.

Hopefully more will come out,there's lots of '56 with bucket seat set-ups.

 

Ralph,
Here is some pictures of the mounts that I welded up. They are very easy to build and work well seeing that I am to old and fat to work under the dash with the seats in I can remove the seats in just a few seconds. Hope this helps.

 

Once I mounted the ТФУФТД buckets with the driver's seat centered on the steering wheel I noticed that any appreciable console would not fit between the seats. I hate sitting off to one side of the steering wheel, so; a custom console it will be.

 

I have been considering Suburban split-bench type seats. I like these though. I would like to see how they fit in a 53-56 cab.....
