350smallblock85E 10-15-2003, 06:34 PM Hello all, i am looking for a pair of cheap but decent bucket seats for my 85. It has a 50/50 bench w/ armrest in it but i really want some buckets. If anyone has information on a pair in the western New York region that would be great. camino81 10-16-2003, 05:30 AM You may want to check ebay for bucket seats, you can use a wide variety of seats with a little modding and fabbing. I know guys on here have used buckets from firebirds, corvettes, and camaros. ElkyPete 10-16-2003, 05:51 PM Are you looking for correct year buckets or off-the-shelf or Junk Yard specials? Honest Charley's Custom Classics sells a set that fit and can be ordered to match for about 600.00 Poltergeist 10-16-2003, 07:28 PM You will also need to get the brackets (against the tranny tunnel) for the bucket seats. You can get them from a number of cars from a junk yard. I had to get some from a Monte Carlo so I could install my Trans Am seats in mine. 87SS 10-16-2003, 08:07 PM You will also need to get the brackets (against the tranny tunnel) for the bucket seats.

Mine came from a 87 formula. Drilled and tapped new mounting holes in the seat pans...In like Flynn (sorry, dating myself) :cool: 350smallblock85E 10-17-2003, 10:49 AM Im looking for anything that will fit into my car without alot of work( meaning that i dont want to fabricate brackets myself but would not mind modifying some.)The if i wouldnt mind something from a junkyard, if the padding and cover are unsalvagable thats okay as long as the frame isnt rusted to badly and i am able to find new covers and padding and i need the brackets to modify. Im not currently willing to pay 600 dollars for new seats cause im too strapped for cash. Thanks for your ideas. 87SS 10-17-2003, 12:00 PM Im not currently willing to pay 600 dollars for new seats cause im too strapped for cash. Thanks for your ideas. $25 each for the Pontiac seats at my local playground (salvage yard). Good condition, but not great. I'll have them recovered someday to match the interior color. :cool: bgstk 10-22-2003, 09:15 AM Take a look at rci2990's post for installation tips. 84ELKY305SS 11-25-2003, 12:57 PM take a look at this site there not cheap but there worth it if this is what your looking for http://www.honestcharley.com/ec%20interior.htm Its got a lot of other things on this site that youll probley like as well Tommy 11-26-2003, 02:40 PM I got mine for 70.00 at a local junk yard. 95 Z24 Cav. seats & they are in great shape. | ||
