View Full Version : El camino buckets from Monte; will they bolt in? findrivr Feb 25th, 02, 7:16 PM For a '70 El Camino with bench, will the 70-72 Monte buckets fit with the adapter brackets? Steve R Feb 25th, 02, 10:50 PM Yes. The seats will be the same as those from a Chevelle, El Camino, or any other 69-72 A-body. Steve R RAMBO Feb 26th, 02, 4:27 PM They will bolt right in- BUT- Note the thickness of the seat back rubber stoppers. There are various thickness stoppers- When i installed my seats (also from a monte) they had 1/2" bumpers! That 1/2" equated to a very uncomfortable ride. Took 'em out, made my own thinner bumpers- problem solved. That 1/2" at the base made a big difference how far the seat back leaned, and in an Elky, you need all the room you can get. Good luck wiht it!!! ------------------ Ben Rambow 1969 El Camino Custom (http://www.chevelles.com/feature/july2001.html) 1968 Olds Delmont 88 Convertable (http://www.chevelles.net/ecc/delmont88/delmont88.htm) "Whats the matter with the car I'm Driving?
