    looks great, what an awesome idea to have hinged seats.

    what cars were they in?
    Black WB bodied HZ panelvan with a 400 chev called Frankie :nerviness:

    Aquarious HX windowless Kingswood project.

    others

    A trimmer would know but somebody here may also,I have a few different bucket seats here (hj,wb,hr) but not the hq ones im after. Hj bases appear the same can I adapt or use the backs off any of the others? Just would save me the $300-400 people seem to be asking for them and I'd have that money towards the trimming.

    Thanks

    Thanks fellas, Didnt know the HR seats were worth anything so thats good news.
    Ill keep looking for some cheap Hq ones as suggested, but im in country Vic so freight I would expect on a bulky item like seats to be a killer from Adelaide and areas further, (confess I havent enquired though). Ive got family in Melbourne which helps getting stuff but usually higher demand for everything. like you say though ill keep watching never know yer luck.

    sell the hr buckets and you will still have money left over after you spend the 3 to 400 for hq seats...ej to hr is what they are and generally will fetch $550 plus...
