Well one of many it seems.


Picked these bad boys up today at the local wrecker.

Thanks to @Brads70 for the inspiration.

Now I just have to figure out how to mount them!  I may try using the facotry seat brakets and adapting them to the seats. Not sure yet. Hopfully I will have them in over the summer.

Nice seats Jas. One question- what will you do about the seat belts?
In the immortal words of Jimmy Scott- "pace yourself!"

Use the stock ones and unbolt the ones on the new seats and toss them.

Lol funny thing is I found these while I was at the wreckers becuase I had to fix the sears in the wife's truck earlier in the week. Went back yeterday to get these!  I am looking for stock drivers seat for her Ram.

That just happened? I'm just getting home from camping and they are gone? They were there when I left?  I'll see if I can find some pictures when I get some time.

A few companies build re-location brackets for E-Bodies to do what you are trying to do.  I just ran across some this morning while doing a google search for something else.  Naturally, now I can't find the site.  :pullinghair:

Yeah, looks like Photobucket is now charging for hosting pics...nice of them to tell everyone.

Hope you vacation was awesome!

no hurry on pics, I likely wont get around to this for a while...now that the car is back together, I think I might drive it for a bit!!!

Thanks @BFM_Cuda.  They are out of a Hyundai Tiburon.  I found both a leather...ok ok.. vinyl and cloth pair at my local wreckers. I went with the vinyl, because I liked the look better, that and when I sat in them at the wreckers, they did not seem as hot as the cloth set.
