73 rear seat parts

[mgryan98]

I have a 73 Balzer I am restoring. The body shop lost the brackets that attach the rear seat to the truck bed. The seats have been reupholstered and I can't mount the rear seat.

Any recommendations where I can buy some?

Greatly appreciate any assistance you may provide.

LMC doesn't seem to list them; I checked the catalog to see if I could post part #s for the OP.

IIRC, the same rear seat is used for 73-77 Blazers and as the third row in so equipped Burbs of the same era, so you could steal the brackets from such a truck at a junkyard or whatever.

GM may still have them; it's worth a call to your local dealer, though they may ream you for them.

You could fab a set without a LOT of work, as it's basically just bent flat stock.

Alternately, MGRyan, if you were a full member here you could post in the Parts Wanted forum and find a set easily. (I know -- I'm sure I have one attached to a seat in my shed.) Tell ya what; if you sign up,
I'll sell you my set fairly cheap
