When you can find them they are pretty expensive. I haven't seen any on eBay for a long time so when they do come up I am bidding to win.

they never come up on ebay because no one wants to buy them and pay the shipping for them.

He is talking about just the brackets. They do come up once in a great while.

Yeah I am not interested in the seats themselves, just the brackets. I was told that $400-$500 is about what I should expect? That is pretty wild!

i read that too fast. the last set of brackets i seen went for less than that on ebay. it was a deal for the seats brackets and the chrome strip above the tank fo ra pickup only deal. but the guy said he would ship just the brackets without the seats. and they went maybe around 250.00 at the highest that i remember. there is a guy who makes those bracket i think . he is here in kansas i heard. ask ezernutt. i think he knows who he is.

I had his email for a while but he would never respond so I gave up. I need to get off my rear and go hit some salvage yards and see what they have.

I have access to a set here that a metal fabrication company is going to scan into their cad and reproduce for me. If any one wants a set, let me know and I can see how much it would be.

I found I think a f600 dump bump dully, it has the wide front and also has buckets that look original. Would they be the same as the f100 and 250's? I can buy the whole truck for $500.00. He says it needs a rear end if I remember right.
