Help with seat bracket

Does anybody have an extra seat bracket they could sell me? I am looking for the passenger inside seat bracket for my 66 Econo van. I have the one that attaches to the fender well but need the one that bolts to the floor.

I made a new one out of some tubing and a cheap bender from harbor freight.

There's a seat bracket being sold on eBay. Can't recall if it's driver or passenger side. It's in Vintage Auto Parts section.

Good luck!

You have to be sure that the bracket is from a 65 to 67 Econoline. Thebolt holes are further apart and the height is taller also. 64 and down are a bit shorter and the bolt mounts are closer together.
Numberdummy comes on here andhe is from SoCal and he seems to have a good source where those vans are at wreckers down there or places that may have parts.

C5UZ8961757A is the outer bracket, right/left is the same: 1965/67.

The inner brackets were only sold with the seat frame kit, so there's no part number for them.

Sorry...I dunno where any Econolines of this vintage are located in wrecking yards.

One local long time dismantlers yard had 100's of seats at one time, but recently the owner threw away 1000's of old parts, so I doubt he has any left.

P/M me for the name/address, cuz you never know.
