The Much Anticipated Bench Seat to Bucket Seat Conversion
After a couple of years of delays I finally converted from bench to bucket seats in my 67 Barracuda.
It all started when I purchased a pair of 1968 black buckets seat from my favorite parts Guy@RAT ROD AL . My car is not original so I chose to install the taller back 68 seats rather than the lower 67 seats. With the help of several other FABO member's I was lucky enough to procure some head rests to add them to the buckets. The Pearl White seat covers came from Legendary after a 5 month wait. After waiting for a couple more month's for the upholstery dude to get over Covid I got them back and installed them. It all turned out OK but I will be removing them to modify the tracks as they are to far forewords' and too tall.
This project was far to $expensive and took a long time to complete. I think it will be worth it in the long run.
Here's a couple of pic's showing the seats and the mounting holes.
