68 Coronet Bucket Seats OEM style

[Nitrofish1]

Hi forum, been looking around for a while now, is there any good place to get repro bucket seats for my Coronet? My Deluxe came with a bench seat and I was thinking for a Super Bee clone that a non-console bucket seat layout would look better but I have yet to find someone to offer them, just the upholstery so far but no frames.

I would hate to rip off another B Body just to get some bucket seats but I'd like them to be original.

not sure, just wanted to do a super bee clone with it, and liking the look of bucket seats, but i'd still want them to be original, obviously i could buy a set of cheap bucket seats and a bracket adapter set but i like the B body buckets from that time.

My shoe is on the other foot! Aquired a 68 Coronet 440. Someone installed some cheesy bucket seats but the factory setup is a bench seat. No where near ready to start the resto on it but I am always looking for opportunities for parts I know I need. Good luck with the search.

Are they original seats or cheesy aftermarkets? If originals I may be able to arrange a trade but I haven't actually taken delivery yet, making payments, grandfather owns it. Mine is a Deluxe model, bench would need new upholstery or good tape job, color is blue

Just so you know a Bee came standard with a bench seat and buckets were an option. Buckets are cooler though.

sad day..... now that the new information has come to light i may keep the bench seat since im making it a bee. itll sting ya :icon_lol:

however my color theme i still have noooo idea, thinking with a fiber six pack hood ( i do actually want to do a six pack setup), black striping on a silver body with a black interior, keeps coming to mind. although so far my absolute favorite so far is the mopar muscle featured 68 coronet in plum crazy, looks fannnnnnnntastic! red on silver looks great but i didnt like the idea of a tri-colored car
