Welcome advice and any knowledge on this subject. THANKS | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | I'd also like to see pictures. I suspect the rear seat in my '54 is from a '60-66. I'd like to compare. Thanks. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 | The middle seat is suppose to be the same from 1960-1966 according to Jim carter,are you needing one ? It has a metal tube arm rest on one side.
Thanks,Tim

It looks to me to be a mate to the back seat I have that RJ has identified as '60-66 Chevy. rear seat 1 rear seat 2 | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 189 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 189 | | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 35 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2005 Posts: 35 | Your red seat looks like a rear seat but in the middle. There were no mounts in the middle for a full size seat. Just a 3/4 seat. | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | Yes, it is a rear seat mounted in the middle position. It does not mount properly in either position in the '54. It is mounted to 2X12s which are bolted to the floor.
On '47-59 Suburbans the rear seat will properly mount in the middle position. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 | yes Cletis your seat is 1960-1966 .

My full width seat mounts in the middle just fine.
The guy I bought my truck from had a '61 Suburban, and didn't realize he had the same arraingement until AFTER he sold me the truck and the "spare" full-width rear seat he had for an extra $100.
He said "You can probably cut this one down to fit in the middle." I said "I think it'll fit as-is----here, watch..." and bolted it in place. He was sick when he realized it! He needed a full-width one for the middle of his '61, but was making due with the short one.
