   I have GM mid 70's buckets in mine with 8 way power loved them Just took them out to install 64 TBird ones still going to use power on left . 2 years ago I put late Caddy power rails under the stock front seat worked good except I need the seat all the way back was hard to get people into rear seat. Never thought about doing anything with rear seat.
   Good luck with what ever you do.

5 or 6 years ago, Rod N Custom, or Hot Rodding had a large spread of a car with those seats adapted in.. Might have been a mid 50's Ford. It looked awesome. I searched wrecking yards, hemming and swap meets for over a year,  but settled on the stock rears after a futile search. If I ever find a that interior, I will strip my Tudor's interior and go with these!

If you find them, you will have a sweet looking interior.
