Posting here for visibility - Anyone have a pair of 68-72 GM A-body buckets they are willing to let go of? I can probably work with a pair of 66-67 also, but prefer 68-up.
Can be out of a Chevelle, Cutlass, Skylark, Lemans / GTO etc.

Headrests are a plus, but not a "must" - They can be added during restoration.

I have some 69 Camaro seats laying around. My 69 chevelle came withe the buckets, just not sure if I am keeping them in it yet. You can get aftermarkets pretty reasonable when you consider what cores cost and rebuilding them.

I was looking at running the Procar "90" buckets with headrests, they save considerable weight and don't look too out of place in a stock interior. Not sure on comfort or quality though....ever used them?

These guys - they look a little small though

Had these in my 66 el camino.
There decent seats. I thought they felt kind of soft seat springs n frame.

I found a few reviews saying they were "light duty". I'm gonna try to find a set of stock buckets and see how they feel, before I sink money into them. I like the factory look the best anyhow

There are some on ebay but unfortunately they all have gold plated springs 🤣🤣.

IDK if they are asking crazy money or if they are norm price but it appears they are mostly in the Midwest. There is also 1 that is full power.
