    Just wondering if anyone can confirm either way if this is a stock rear seat out of a 66 window van? It is what came in my van and the upholstery is the same as the front seats, however the passenger side folds down and I haven't seen any others like this.

    Actually, with that plastic lowering handle it looks more like VW Transporter seat. If you see a tag in German on the inside bottom that should be VW.

    Unfortunately, I know more about VW than Chevy which ain't much.

    Good luck, Mark

    I don't know, I thought VW myself but Mark is right, try to find any tag or part number on it anywhere.

    The more I look at it the more it looks VW. The 1st gen set had the angle brace in the legs on both the front and back down to the center.

    Most folks get their vans without and find whatever bench seat they can. It does look good.

    yeah it is working for now. Got a cheap seat cover on it until I run out of other things to spend my money on. Shocked
