I have a pr. of 68 Camaro buckets should I use these or opt for say corvair or early impala? This car will have a roll bar in it, & it will be some what of a stiffer ride. thanks..

I think the general consensus is that low back bucket seats look best in a tri-five. Doesn't have to be just Impala, any early 60's GM full size car with the chrome trim around the backs look the best, IMO.

The Camaro seats may look a little small in there. You may be better off getting an early set of Impala (or similar) seats, They will fill the space better.

EXACTLY! They would not look right in a trifive.
Well I found a pr. 69 chevelle haven't seen them yet for $200. Also 62 & 63 buckets for $375. haven't seen them either, those need recovered. The chevelle ones don't if you can believe the seller!! Thanks gr. onions I looked at yours nice I think the shipping would be more then my pocket book would allow..

I'm using 1964 Chevelle bucket seats . They're a pretty good fit with plenty of room for a console if you're looking to use one...
Well I went & looked at the chevelle ones, not good about 1 minute of them was enough. All it cost was a few $$$ of gas & time. Did look at some pro-car ones online they didn't look to bad. Not in no big hurry, thanks all for the suggestions. Also called local junkyard going to pay them a visit for M. Carlo ones..

Just sold mine today to a fellow local hot rodder. He was a older guy and the 63- 65 are the seats to have.
