Are 1969 Darts and Barracudas the same bench seat? Different patterns of course. Thanks!

In 1969 they are different. Most Barracudas had a fold down armrest in the middle. Darts do not. BTW, I just did a comparison of back seats in 69 Darts and Barracuda coupes (notchback) and they are different as well!

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

What would be the difference between the Dart And the Barracuda bench seat both without fold down armrest? I would think they are the same. Besides the seat cover

The Cuda are 108 inch wheel base and the Darts are 110 inch, correct Do you really think the front seat is in the same location on both cars Probably not I've own both and it seems to me that the Cuda bucket seats make you sit down lower in those cars than in the Darts do OP, do you have both are you wanting to find out if they interchange before buying a seat?

Looking at the underneath of the seats they use different stiffeners with the Darts being much wider. I should take a picture of the differences and post them.

I have a 69 Cuda with a bench seat from a duster in it (high back). I'm going back original and already have a 1969 dart bench. Hoping to buy the cuda pattern covers. I haven't measured yet but I have a hunch they're the same. Mine had the split bench originally without the fold down armrest.
