A guy I know said he didn't know where these seat came from, but I thought they looked like Mopar seats (I am looking for a set of high back budket seats). When I got them home I noticed that they don't tilt forward. Must have come from a 4-door. Anyway, I thought I might be able to use the seat tracks for something else. But, are these Mopar seats? The mounting bolts measure 14" across and 11" fore/aft.

BTW, if you click on the photo, it gets bigger

RDJ,measured that van seat and mounting bolts are 14"wide and 10" front to back,so thats close to yours.Seat itself is(all approx),top of seat 21"wide,17"to19"deep,seat back is 29"high.It looks SO like a van seat but I would imagine MoPar used alot of same/same parts across model lines.

They look like van seats to me. I put 4 dr seats from a 93 chev blazer in my car, and they look and feel great. Nobody ever gets in the back, and if they have to, the pass seat moves so far forward, there is more room to climb back there than the stock bench! :shock:

Those are van seats,other than color they are identical to the seats that I have waiting to go in my 60 Valiant.Mine came out of a 82 Dodge short van,but Im sure that other years had the same style.

Thanks for the replys! Are the seat tracks/bolt pattern the same for vans as they are for A bodies?

No,you will have to fab brackets or risers or swap a set of seat rails from somthing else.
