Bench seat fit
« on: January 29, 2018, 06:41:40 PM »
Have an 83’ scottsdale c10. Looking to put a bench seat in. Will a 77’ seat fit? This is the 77’ seat

can't see the pictures but if it is a stock seat from a 1977 into a 1983, yes it will bolt in.  The drawbacks are the seat belts would go between the seat back and bottom, not through the bottom like the 83.  Now the belts will be tight and if you need the seat up at all or you not skinny you may not get the belt buckled.

I uploaded a new pic... if you say it will work Im going to go for it. I gather the bolt pattern is the same from 73-87
