    Question How does this sound

     



    I've been trying to find some modern Buckets for my 68 Galaxie, I need a low seat cause I'm thinking 3 1/2" Chop top, I have a freind with 2 buckets from a 96 Camaro, I know a guy that can reappolster them to look like 68 Galaxie buckets (Vinyl with cloth center with metal block)
    how do you guys think that'll look??

    Thumbs up ?????/

     



    got any pixs for a better idea?
    What is "with metal block"?

    And if your upholstery guy is good, the work should be good.

    In the 96 camaro, are they tall in the back?"like to somewhat of a point at the top?"

    And hieght?.....I think you can get all kinds of universal slides ,anymore. " or you can be like me and "rig" something up that looks nice"

    "what color you going inside.............?"
    "Whad'ya want for nuth'N, ..............aaa,rrrrrubber biscuit... ?"

    If your wondering how I'm doing I'm > " I'm still pick'N up the shinny stuff and passing open windows "

    My interior gu is the best, I worked on BMW bikes for a while and we had a guy come in and ask if our seat guy could do his couch, he wanted it to be "AS COMFY AS MY OLD 69 CADY" Well the guy called cady got the name of the copany that made teh origanal seat fab and bought the same stuff cady used in 69, he is willing to go that far to make you happy.

    The Camaro seats are high back (For a Camaro) I think theyll fit ok
    I just wonder how theyll look, and a pix of the metal seat things is below, pic a color there out of a cat. One metal piece is in the center of you back with the line all the way down the seat.

    For my inter color I'm going to match the exterior what ever that might end up being, I was thinking going stock ford Cayman green, or pure black with Chevell style racing strips in ford blue or the opp. Ford blue with black strips.

    Streets I have mental blocks all the time

    Tree, I'm gona have a center consol with my cd player and toggles for a few things in it, in fron t of the consol I'm going with a b&m ratchign shifter for the C6 I'm getting for cristmas.

    Tech I would like those seats but I'm building on a tight budget, I need seats and the Camaro seats are free.
