So I bought this bench seat from a local guy on craigslist to put in my '59 1/2 ton, he sold as being a seat out of a '57 1/2 ton. I took his word on it, bought it, brought it home, tried installing it and what do ya know, it doesn't fit. Both the mounting brackets and physical size were TOO large. Can you guys please help me identify this seat so I can sell it for the right type of truck. Here are the dimensions:

Front Bracket mounting hole spacing= 50" & 42.5"
Rear Bracket mounting hole spacing= 49" & 44.5"
Bottom seat= 57.5" Long, 22" Deep
Back Rest= 59.5" Long


Here are some pics:

well it has the same details as the 55-59 seats, maybe a 60-66, I believe that later series cab was slightly wider

Thanks for the response. That's the reason why I bought it, because it did have the same features as a 55-59. It's just a wider version of it.
