damn NICE!!

**N2TRUX** · 04-23-2004, 09:18 AM

Those look great. Nice and cushy. It shouldn't cost much to get your rear bench covered, since that requires the least amount of labor to cover. Are you going to change out the door panel color too?

Did you get your leather seats sold? Those were super nice. Too bad they were too tall...

KIILew · 04-23-2004, 04:45 PM

Beautiful seats!

What brand and model are they? Do they sit higher or lower than the original bench?

I am especially curious to know if you are centered behind the steering wheel when you sit squarely in the driver's seat.

I have been bitten by that one before- -back in 1988 we bought some new flexsteel seats for our '88 Chev K3500. After I put them in I discovered I had to reach to the right for the wheel!

Just wondering because I want to replace the bench in my '79. I would like, too, to find something with a back or headrest that might prevent one's head from hitting the back glass in case of an accident.

I am also curious to know as what brand/model they are.

They look good BTW, although I would prefer leather.

muscletruck · 04-23-2004, 06:25 PM

i wanted leather!!!! i really did.... oh man, but expensive..these seats are brand new.... i bought em from eurotech.... its a seat place in bell gardens out here in cali.... but you can check out all there seats on www.salesco.com look under fullsize truck seats, i got venice gray...sweet seats... they gave me the brackets that bolt right up to the factory holes...the easiest install of my life... i love it...smooth tracks... and the center console even moves forward and back..the seats sit perfect height, maybe like an inch lower than the bench..but not even.. it feels perfect for me... and they are centered nicely... and yes sold the leather yukons...thanks to rickspickupart...good guy... came down and grabbed em right up...

I'm in the middle of doing the same to my dually crew cab, '73. I'm using '73 blazer seat's front and rear.
Looks Good

**swervin ervin** · 04-23-2004, 10:51 PM

Look good. I also have seats from Eurotech. I bought mine from Salesco. Mine are black. I no longer have the console seat. I built a center console when I installed my floor shifter.

76bonanza · 04-24-2004, 08:37 AM

how was salesco prices seem fair how was shipping an what not?

muscletruck · 04-24-2004, 04:25 PM

the seats are good quality and the prices are fair.. i mean i paid 499 plus tax for my seats... and i got the brackets and center ice chest upgrade for free.... so ithink they are pretty cool... i didnt get my things shipped i went and picked em up since i live next door to em... swervin ervin might have gotten his shipped.... hes not really that close to cali...

85Silverado · 04-25-2004, 10:14 PM
