Bucket Seats for a '78 F150?
#2
'78-79 Bronco buckets should work with only minor drilling of the floorboard - the outer holes probably match up directly, and you'd only have to drill 4-6 new inner holes. Be sure to use high grade hardware and some heavy-duty large area washers on the underside of the floorboard of the new holes. If possible, grab the hard-sheathed seatbelts out of the donor bronco - then they won't end up on the floor all the time...

I pulled my bench and bought a length of 2 inch aluminum C channel. I cut the channel in half and bolted it to the existing seat rails. That way I didn't have to drill through the floor pan, and you are not stuck to a specific seat that you can use. Just go to a junk yard and pick out a set of buckets you like and bolt them to the aluminum C channel. The only problem is that both buckets slide forward and back together rather than individually with separate seat rails. I could take a picture and post it tomorrow if you are interested.
