New bench seat in old truck..... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was driving my dads 2001 chevy truck yesterday and was pondering the idea of putting a new seat on my 71 chevy. The '01 has nice cup holders built into the seat and the seatbelts are also built into the seat. Seatbelts seem to be at just the right height too, doesn't dig into my neck or anything. The newer Ford and Dodge trucks also have nice bench seats with big compartments in the middle/back of the seat. Just wondering if anybody has done this, and how everything worked out. Does it fit ok?? What did you need to do to mount it?? Pictures would be great.

Thanks,

Travis
