Did Chevy offer what I believe is called "Comfort-Ride seats in 65? These are the two part seats, 70/30, driver's side is a bucket with several adjustment levers. They're in a 1& 1/2T farm truck. They look kind of neat, and I was thinking of getting them for my project. However, if they're not a regular option for the Chevys of that era, I'm going to pass on them. Any guidance will be appreciated.

A "Ride-Control" or "Unison" seat was available on all cab-model 1954 trucks. It was a 30/70 seat (driver/passenger). Maybe this was still the name of that option in 1965?

I was aware of the Unison seat, but didn't know whether they still offered them in 65. Just trying to establish authenticity. Thanks for the reply!

For 65 my book lists an A55 level ride seat. I got no clue what it is, but it is listed. Brian

Standard bench seat was comfortable enough for me.

I don't have my 1965 Chev 1/2 ton anymore, but it is still in the gallery if you are interested.

There were two seat options offered on the '64-'66 Chevy trucks. Both were factory bench seats with a full back and bottom, however the Custom Comfort seat had additional foam padding in the seat over the base model.

I collect factory/manufacturer/dealer literature for the '64-'66 Chevy trucks and have never seen mention of any seats in the C/K series trucks, other than memtioned above.

burgandybolt:

Do you mean what are the differences in the C & K Series trucks or the differences in the seat in the C & K Series trucks?

There are no differences in the seats of a C10 (1/2 ton 2wd)/C20 (3/4 ton 2wd) or K10 (1/2 ton 4x4)/K20 (3/4 ton 4x4) Series trucks, unless you have the Custom Comfort Cab feature with the B55 RPO, full foam seat cushion.

I hope this helps.
