73 cuda bucket seat help!
« on: June 25, 2018 - 12:04:10 AM »
hi everyone,
need some help please. Currently restoring my 73 cuda. I got given these seats when i bought the car. please refer to pic.

they are not correct 73 74 seats, but if i get the correct 73 74 foam for the frame, would it still work? been seeing mixed yes and no's.


thanks for the help!

I cannot say 100% the foam won't work but I would be skeptical. Those seats appear to be out of an A body (Duster, Demon) and I "think" the frames are different. I could be wrong, but that is what I am thinking. that said, I would think a good upholstery guy could make them work.

thanks for the reply. i had a feeling they may be a duster seat. was hoping they used the same frame shape

Like I said, I am not 100% sure either way but I am pretty sure they didn't.
