Bucket or bench

a compromise would be if there was a split bench (buddy seat) setup offered? if there wasn't any other choices then i would stick with the bench as it is a cool factor with the 4 speed. i had a 69 chevelle ss 396 with factory 4 speed with a bench seat. 2nd and 4th gear could be fun sometimes if i had 3 people in the front seat, lol.
