Very nice I like them! What are they originally out of? Are they power?

They are power. The buckets came out of a PT Cruiser, and the middle came from a chevy truck.

Just curious, why didn't you use the buckets out of the chevy pickup? They physically wouldn't fit or were they not to your liking?

I have been wanting to do something similar and was actually wanting to using the seats out of a chevy pickup the same style and year as your console.

I took the seats out of my friends 63 chevy pickup. We put an original bench back in. He gave me these seats. I do like the chevy seats that would match the console. The chevy seats would have shoulder belts attached to the seat. I'm not sure if they would fit or not.
