WANTED - WB ute or panelvan bucket seats!

[mook]

lol.. i sold mine for 10 bucks, didn't think anything of it. and yes they were the originals from the van.

I've had plenty of them too. At one stage there was 4 x pairs in the shed, 2 x pairs from Kingswoods, 1 x Deville and 1 x Caprice. I think there is currently 2 x Kingswood pairs up on the mezzanine, although from memory I used the runners off one pair on VH Calais seats that I put in the Overlander before I sold it. When you compare Commodore and WB runners side by side it isn't that hard to modify them to be the same, just needs a tab welded on each end from memory, and when you do it make the tabs a bit wider on the tunnel side runner so you can capture the factory HQ-HZ floor nuts.

I've just done a deal to sell my factory v8 2 seat WB Kingswood ute to a mate (with a very tidy original interior). I could see if he's sentimentally attached to the seats. I know he's planning on ditching the WB front end for an earlier one so he may not care about the WB specific stuff inside if it changes the price.

I am also thinking that modifying them might be easier.....

Are the WB statesman runners the same as the commercial ones? Is the drivers height adjustment removable?

I have no idea... Maybe that is a question for HK1837 to answer... I wasn't really concerned about it because my ute was never gonna be restored to factory..

The seat itself is pretty much exactly the same, but the runners are different.. I think the mounting points on the WB ones are further apart in length and a little bit in width... The Commy ones are also higher if that makes sense..
