bench seats vs bucket

I have had two 1969 barracuda that came with bench seat from factory, so they did come that way.

If the car came with the original seats, I would repair/recover them if possible.

I have auto on floor with console and buckets in my 67 convertible, but plan on converting it to 4 speed on floor without console, I bet I miss the armrest since my daily drivers have'em.

My race car has a aftermarket automatic floor shifter and I still use the bench seat. The seat came in the car but is from an earlier year Dart swinger. People do not seem to notice the different headrest and the slight differences between the front and rear upholstery patterns.

I wish I had a bench seat with an armrest or a separate armrest unit (like used in late 60's B-bodies) to use in my 67 vert!
