I need a bench seat for my 64 chevy truck. Should I buy it new, or go to a junkyard, or what?

If you buy new, you're probably looking at about $600 to $800, plus you need to adapt it (not too hard). If you buy at a junkyard, you'll probably need to reupholster it and still adapt it to your truck, probably $400 to $500 depending on the upholstery shop. You could go to a swap meet and maybe find something, get lucky on the color and condition, and have it made for a hundred or two.

you can find a nice 88 to 99 pu seat at he wrecking yard for around 300.00 or one that needs recovering for 50 bucks. just make sure the foam is all there. The front bolt holes line up perfect and the back ones are off one inch or so, the cost to recover around this part of the country might be 225 to 275 depending on how fancy. good luck

Depends on where you live . . . I have one you can have for free! - just unbolt it and haul it away!

Just north of Vancouver Washington . . . might take a few days of driving.

Agreed. Although I drive my truck around town frequently, I'd be beat to death if I drove it there. However, I have a brother who lives in Camas, nearby. But he drives a Corvette and cannot deliver the seat to me.

Can you describe the seat? What's it out of...condition, and material? Thanks. I'm not sure if I can get it, but I thank you for the offer. If it's just what I'm looking for though... :confused:
