buckets no console
pics 1 to 3 are my own cars ....pic 1 and 2 are actually the same car .
pic number 4 was a car that was for sale in Denver, Colorado ...it was a bronze 69 swinger 340.
the rest of the pics were ones i found on a google search :rambo:
bucket seats, no console. bench is way too grandma. unless you wanna be a .... grandma.
the problem i have with consoles is that every car i have now is either a 3 or 4 speed and console stuff for 4 speed is big money and rare.
if your going with auto then a console will be more feasable bcoz they made a gazillion of those.......if 4 speed console stuff was less expensive and more available i would prolly go for it ....but not when its going to cost $1000. + to get it all correct and nice :read:
i do have a 4 speed console set-up but it costs sooooo much to restore and get it perfect. (pitted chrome and missing boots) ugggghhh

Having that bench seat made it a whole lot easier for your date to sit closer to you on a week end! I guess she could sit on the console, which probably explains why a lot of those plastic consoles had big cracks in them???! Ben.
Bucket with or with out console.. My Demon has a 73 Duster bench in it now and I don't like it - it's very heavy
HA sorry ya I was referring to the weight of the seat..Huh ? You sit in it or it sits on you ?
I know you were refering to vehicle weight
I'm just being silly
Why not convert your auto console to a 4-speed one? I was going to do just that. It might not pass muster in some people's minds.....because it wouldn't have the little chrome raised rectangular trim around the outer edge of the shift boot, but.....I would run it and not think twice. Seriously...out of every 100 people who checked it out, would 1 even notice?
How about buckets with the fold down "buddy seat/armrest"? That's what I'm doing in my Dart wagon - buckets out of a 66 Barracuda and buddy seat out of a 68 B body - yes it all fits without any rubbing.
yea i can see a B-body buddy seat working and thats a good idea.
from the factory A bodies got these >>>
i have a few of them but im finding out that they are really hard to come by.
we will find out how much its going to cost ship one to Canada real soon thats where this one is headed....
Is that a Ford seat?
