Because mine has them, and I don't see any other repus with them. Trying to figure out whether it will be worth to get them reupholstered.

 

REPU's had bench seats from the factory

 

Any idea what seat this is from? Here's a closer picture of the drivers seat, which is in bad shape so it could be hard to tell. The seats are out of the truck right now, I've got to weld new floors in. I'm just trying to figure out this truck's history lol.

 

If you like bucket seats, look around for some - no idea what will fit but it needs to have a short back that doesn't recline much. Otherwise see if you can get those ugly things recovered. Or better yet, look for a stock bench seat. I call it the couch.

 

first auto repu i've ever seen.

 

I'd love the stock set up, but I just can't see myself finding a bench in my area. I need to find the leather on ebay or something then I can get them reupholstered for around $350, which is way less than I expected. That's both by the way.

 

Yeah, lucky me. It won't be auto much longer hopefully, just gotta find a transmission..

 

I have sparco sprint Jr.'s in my truck witch is a 74,i am 6 ft. tall and they are comfy and still have the leg room.it took my a few years to find something that would work without eating the steering wheel with my knees.

 

Hmm.. I'm only 5'7-ish and I find my knees pretty close to the dash with these seats. I must admit though that the front right bolt was just kinda hanging there, as the floor rotted away around it. I think once I get the rail fixed on it, that will make a big difference too lol.

So still no ideas on what kind of seats these are?

 

with the sparcos,you sit in them,not really on them.they have a very thin back and bottom.i will take a pic for you so you can get an idea.

 

Yeah they're racing seats right? With the side bolstering? How do those look in a RePu?

 

repus came with bench seats.

 

People will toss in any sort of bucket seat from all kinds of manufacturers, it will be pretty much dumb luck if anybody happens to identify that seat.

The REPU bench has a really thin and low back that lets it sit further back. Buckets actually take away a couple inches of leg room as a result. The REPU bench is the same seat as many years of the old b-series trucks and the Courier had, they aren't too hard to find. I would look for one of those.

 

I had race tech seats low back fixed buckets from new zeland ,they were ok but i'm 6' and I was a little cramped , finding a bench should be easy just get one out of a ford courier or mazda b1600/1800 same seat .

 

Ok I'll have to do that. I know what you mean about the buckets taking more room, I'm only about 5' 8" and my knees were pushed up into the steering wheel.
