Swivel Buckets question
What years of the A bodies had the swivel buckets with the removable/reversible seat cushions?
Found a set in a quonset hut in a local junkyard for 100, but he doesn't remember which car/year they came out of, I'm leaning toward a hurst cutlass but not sure

Yeah, they looked kinda neat. The bottom and rear panels are attached via bungee cords and have a velour on one side and vinyl/leather in the other. No luck finding replacement seat covers as of yet.

Re: Swivel Buckets question
Found a few pics of seats like the above....
In a 75 Hurst Olds, seems no-one makes upholstery kits for these, at least thats what alot are saying on the different olds boards out there.

Big $$$ I'm sure to have them done at a custom upholstery shop.

LOL No kidding, went and got an estimate today, cost more than what I paid for both of my lagunas combined!
2335.99 for 2 buckets! I think I'll shop around some more!
Oh well, I can probably recoup my investment by selling the swivel mechanisms to some of the low-rider guys around here, they think swivel buckets are the bees knees!
