What kind of work did it take to swap the G-body seats in? Pretty much bolt in i assume? Ive been thinking of some bucket seats if i can find them blue leather, especially late model B-body power seats if i can find them.

the mustang doing donuts in the video is the one on craigslist that says, "adult driven and all highway miles, always babied!!!"

i just swapped the brackets on the seats... however they are narrower now so you will have to drill out holes for one side of the seat brackets and run bolts thru the floor/tacweld in bolts

Roadmasters have the power seat controls on the sides of the seats and Caprices/Impalas have them on he door panel. That's something to keep in mind of you want power seats from a late model B body.

Great work bro. I have seen you car before at World of Wheels and at Dub. I have the 2-toned blue and silver Charger. I'm looking to switch it up a bit on the paint, and do some fiberglass on the interior. Your Chevy is looks like it's going to be one of the sickest in the Chi!! I will be at World of Wheels next month, if your there holla at me, we can figure some things out.

What kind of motor is that? 396 or 454 BBC i assume? Im running a 468" BBO, mildly modded, prolly around 500hp/600tq at the crank in my catalina, and can run all over any camaro or stang or anything else i want to, but im not pulling as much weight as that especially with the wheels. What rear gear you running with them and what trans? Gonna take a high *** gear to get those 30s spinning like stock size wheels, lol.
