Welcome to this site.
First, if you want an original seat, post a want ad in the Swap Meet (link is at the top of this page).
Next, if you want an original seat, have patience. There seems to be plenty of people looking to change to bucket seats.
If, however, you are looking for advice on what type of bench seat will work, you will probably get some good advice from people posting here.

Why do you want to pull the buckets out? And are you aware how uncomfortable the bench is? Does anyone know what kind of buckets work well in a 54?

They have the shoulder harness built in. They appear kind of pricey on ebay. but its a great way for the 3 point seat belt system. I did see two at IOLA for $200 a piece, they were new. Just could not commit yet.
