Bucket seat cover question

Anyone know if a set of replacement seat covers can be bought for factory 77 buckets ? If so where ?

Chris (CaptKaos) sells them.

I recovered mine, was really happy with them. You will have to re-use your emblems if the seats currently have them.

Re: Bucket seat cover question

the ones I sell are the same exact ones as what is listed in the links above, but I think Jeff can tell you my prices are a lot friendlier.

Re: Bucket seat cover question

Daaang those look sweet Jeff. Hmmm! I may have to go in my attic.

Jeff, what condition was your foam in, or did you replace it? Sorry but I can't remeber.

Too late Ken , I snuck up there already . No , I am just kidding but I do have that pair of seats I bought from Jonboy . Only thing is they are blue and I have been thinking about red buckets in the 78 . I probably wont mess with those seats since the covers were pretty nice already , but I might look for a set to put in the black truck . It is just a thought and I will probably leave the original seat in place since it is not in need of any work . It would look nice though .

Re: Bucket seat cover question

Yeah, I still kick myself for not picking that set up. That's alright, I did get a set from another friend. They aren't as clean as the ones you have but I got a really good deal.

The problem is the cost of the foam is outrageous. Even with a buddy deal through Chris, it's expensive. Couple that with the other mods it will force me to do and it turns in to a really pricey mod.

But it sure is tempting, especially if I find a nice console...

That friend was me.

As Chris stated, the foam was fine on my seats, so I just recovered them. Guys, buy your covers from Chris, great price...and a decent guy.

Re: Bucket seat cover question

I remember the ones you bought now ,I think . Were they green or something ? I should have kept the second set I had but they are beautiful now and are going into a well deserving truck .

That is correct, and thanks again for taking good care of me.

As you can see from the pics, the foam in my seats doesn't look that bad, I just think it should be replaced while I can.

Its only money, just step up and get them both. Just pull it out of your mattress or pillow.

No, Kens were maroon, the green ones I sold to another member. I think I have passed along about 4-5 sets of buckets seats here.

Are you selling these seats? If so how much and will you ship them (to Texas, not Canada)?
Thanks, John

Both sets were sold quite a while ago. I don't have any other sets.
