tobiasglass Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I was wondering if anyone has tried putting bucket seats in the rear of a coupe or a seda. Any help would be much apprecinated. [object Selection] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobiasglass Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 I should have been more specific lol. A Loyale coupe or sedan was what I meant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Anything is possable if you have a welder and square tubing. I had this same thought a few months ago, would be kinda cool in a wagon! -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobiasglass Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 I'm trying to get a coupe from a friend, and I've always wanted to do a rear bucket job in a car. ^.^ Maybe this time I'll actually be able to accomplish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would pretty cool, just watch the how high the rear buckets sit (As you don't want your head in the roof of the car) Make sure you take some pictures when you start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobiasglass Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 My only real issue will be finding a donor car for the seats and carpet and center console, but a few calls to the local junkyards or a craigslist wanted post should help that.

hatchsub Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Interesting idea but the problem is that most buckets are going to be too tall for the rear. The floor where the rear seat mounts is about 5-6 inchs up from the floor where the front seats mount. Therefore trying to put seats of similar size back there would hard. Also...most buckets are too deep...as in front to back length. To do it you would have to find some smallish buckets that are low cut. Maybe something out of an MG B or something of that size? If you do do it though post some pics. Just one question...why lol? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobiasglass Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 I dunno, always thought it'd look cool and, look at it this way, how many cars do you see that are that unique? Least of all an old Subaru lol. Also, I'm not sure, but I'd think with a little work, you could make the seats from a newer_generation mercury cougar with rear buckets and make those fit if the fronts from a loyale are too disproportionate.
