Are the rear seats on a 1965 Sport Fury and package tray interchangable with the seats and package tray of a 1965 Belvedere?



Thanks.

Never actually tried that, but I would doubt it. Sorry, no real experience there but the C's really feel bigger on the inside.

I've had both but never tried something like that. My first thought is that it won't fit directly. The seats are configured too differently.

Thanks for the responses. I thought it was a longshot for a B and C to be compatable, but in 65 a lot of dimensions were changed and I wanted to make sure.

The package tray is different.The seat if buckets have special brackets for the B bodys.I have a set in the garage.Ive seen just the brackets for a B sell for 200 bucks.The seats them selves for the front will fit but need modified.Rocky

I've been through this before....
The '65 C-body rear seats will fit in but the B-body seats have rounded edges and the covers won't work. Legendary Interiors got me on track over that when I couldn't get the seat covers to work. Wrong seat frames.

52 savoy: Actually I am making my own seat covers, so these seats might work for me.

therocks: Would fabricating an adaptor plate be an option? What type of modifications will need to be done to get the front bucket seats in?
