Camaro buckets in a truck? I just had a flashback to the 80's WOW it's been a while? If you are getting them free or almost free and do not have anything else to sit on I guess that would be the way to go, I am pretty partial to truck seats in trucks though? I might be wrong but Camaro buckets sit pretty low, you might look like a midget driving around? as fa as the tank, I think you would be O.K.

Go all out and relocate the tank under the bed....unless your not into that, but then you could put some tunes like Poison or Van Halen with those buckets...ha ha

Why are you getting new seats anyways dude bench seats are the way to go.

hold up.... I'm not a camaro guy... but I think 70 - 73 was the only years for low back buckets in second gen camaros.
If they are cheap... or just affordable, get them, and see what you can sell them for. I promise they are worth more than you are gonna pay being you have such a limited budget.
Then, you can go and get either truck buckets, or some other buckets that you would prefer to have.

Trust me he is right, get a cover for your bench !! If you ever get a girlfriend you will appreciate the extra room up front ( so she can sit next to you of course).....;) I assume you do not have a girlfriend or you would have already figured out why bench seats rule.

oh no i got a girlfriend just although the bench has more room buckets look much better. and my dad bought me the buckets for my birthday (it was a couple weeks ago) He does automotive upholstery

Built you some brackets for them and built a consone to go in between them.Its your truck and if you like it go for it.These are the same guys that are paying big bucks for buddy buckets.That some thing I don't understand but different strokes for different folks.
