I'm in Southern California and the prices for an original seat are insane! I'm looking for an easy mod which may require a trip to the bone yard and some fabrication. ANY IDEAS!? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 4,095 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 4,095 | I have a 2001 Buick Lesabre seat and it comes with leather or cloth. also it has the shoulder belts built in and a console. i am 5' 10" and it fits me well. look in my photobucket and see the pictures. other models of GM cars of the same year or same era. will fit.

Honestly, I don't care as long as it looks ok and requires little modification. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 4,095 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 4,095 | Other than making the brackets my seat fits fine in my 54.

That is what he does in a very busy reputable business. He'll do just about anything you want to do. The web site is www.bengelsoff-road.com and I'm having him build me another to replace one in a '32 Chevy I have as a daily driver. His shop is in Spring Valley, CA just east of San Diego.
