I recently bought a 72 El Camino. It has a bench seat now. Ive had a set of 67 buckets in storage for a while now. What problems will I have installing these? Isnt there a difference between the 67 and older seats and the 68 newer seats mounting tracks?

In 67 there's a difference just between the bench and bucket seat mounting. I'm not a '72 guru, but I'd imagine they won't "bolt in" but mounting brackets shouldn't be too hard to make.

Chris, if you don't use 'em, I'll buy 'em! Terry

There is one problem. When you bolt a set of 66 or 67 buckets in a 68 and later car, the seats will not be level. They will be lower on one side which will require you to fabricate shims in order to level them.
