Has anyone used the Copperstate components.....

bucket seat mounts in their truck? I`m pondering getting a kit so I can mount a set of early Couger buckets in my 64 F350. I`ve got the buckets, the sliders, and the upholstery that was going to be used in a Tbolt clone. Plans are on hold for that car for the moment, and the truck is up and running daily. Thanks

I bought there bucket seat brackets and installed a set of mustang buckets in my 64 f100. Everyone knows that f100 buckets are 65 mustang buckets?! They were an exact fit, both in spacing, height and strength. And like there add says, you can call them at anytime and they will help.
100% recommended.

Copper state.........

Thankyou for the recommendation. I will be ordering a set this weekend. Also, what is the console I see between the seats? Thanks again.

it’s just a generic no name console I found eBay. It does fit exactly between the seats!

That looks impressive! How's the space from the steering wheel compared to the original seat?

when installing the spacers, once the bench seat is removed the outer spacer will bolt directly into the bench seat mounting holes making it a guess free installation. Because of this, the spacing between the seats is constant and the console should fit perfectly. The inner brackets will need to have holes drilled through the floors to bolt in. With the seats installed with the tracks and spacers, there’s no measuring on the inner brackets. Use the picture on the web site to orient the inner and outer brackets.
as far as room, if using 65-66 seats and 65-66 upholstery, then you’ll gain some room. If using 68 mustang upholstery, it’s thicker and you’ll lose some room.
Fact, when ordering bucket seats as an option in a ford truck, 65-72, they used 65 mustang seats with 65 mustang standard Seat upholstery.
It’s a fun, easy, very rewarding project.
I upholstered the seats and also covered the gas tank myself if you have any other questions
