MOUNTING THE REAR SEAT IN '67

ANYONE KNOW HOW THE REAR SEATS MOUNT IN THESE? I KNOW' DUMB QUESTION , BUT WHEN I PICKED MINE UP LAST WEEK , THE SEAT WAS JUST SHOVED IN THE FAR BACK & I CANT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIND ANY INFO ANYWHERE. ANY & ALL HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED FELLAS.....

Welcome to the site, sure someone here can help you. Never a dumb question here. That what we are here for to help each other

Not sure if we are talking about the same seat, however my 67 has a place to mount a bench seat behind the front driver and passenger seat. There are four holes in the floorboard and the seat has a tube type frame. There are supposed to be four metal brackets that are bolted through the floor and clamp over the seat tube frame.

I dont have a rear seat for mine yet but am looking. I also think the seat belt brackets mount in the same holes.

what he said.

"one hole EMT straps" from home depot in the right size would probably work if you don't have the OEM clamps.

Sorry for the crappy pic but it's all I have. In the 66 I had there were 4 small plates welded in at the top of the ribs, they had a hole large enough for something like a carriage bolt to fit thru and the holes were slotted to allow them to lock in place for the strap clamps to tighten up.

THANKS FOR THE ALL THE FEEDBACK FELLAS. MY DILEMMA IS FIGURING OUT WHAT THE CLAMPS OR STRAPS LOOK LIKE OR FINDING A SET FOR SALE SOMEWHERE. IF NOT , IM OFF TO THE HARDWARE STORE TO FIGURE AN ALTERNATIVE.

(excuse my horrible carpet and lawnmower) That is what i have. You can see the mounts on the floor, with the C clamp type thing holding the seat. There might not be holes for seat belts. My seat belts in the back arent original, and seat belts became law in 68. I have a 67. I have seat belts in the front, but the backs are aftermarket.

OH HOLY CRAP , FOR SOME REASON , I THOUGHT THIS WAS GONNA BE SOMETHING MAJOR. VANNIN , THANK YOU FOR THE PICS BRO. IM OFF TO THE CONCOURSE SHOW THIS MORNING , THEN ITS OFF TO THE HARDWARE STORE FOR PIPE CLAMPS ! NOW IF I CAN JUST FIND SOME HEADLIGHT RINGS.............

BTW , MY FACTORY SEAT HAS THE SEATBELTS MOUNTED TO IT....

I have a set of the slotted plates that were removed from another van. I'll have to dig around for them, but they're here somewhere.
