As the title states, I'm looking for a front bench seat near Connecticut. Ideally parchment color but open to others, original good condition or restored. Not rusty. Please message me if you have one for sale nearby. Thanks, Mike

I was able to use store bought L-brackets (had to cut one short) and existing hardware. Sorry for the bad pic but it's the only one I already have, and I took it to send to the person who reupholstered it for me (so I didn't have the details in mind). I used some cheap remnant vinyl from a fabric store, so it's not a perfect match, but close enough for me. It fit's well and I'm happy with it. Hope that helps. -Mike

I'm also looking for the front bench for my '68. Did you decide against it because you couldn't find one for sale or were there other issues with mounting it? Does anyone have one for sale?

I bought a bench but it was not in great shape; my seats are much better, so I didn't want to put something junky in the truck and I didn't want to pay the money for a bench that was already redone. The one I had would've been too much work for me to make nice. So, I decided to go the route I did which only cost me about $100. It helps that my mother in-law is awesome with a needle and thread. If you are set on a bench they are out there. Check the classifieds here, and on C-list. -Mike

I have a 66 bench here in CT. It is usable condition and I have the key passenger bracket but it will need to be redone at some point. PM me if you are interested.
