Guest glparker389 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 This is a complete six-way power bench seat setup from a 1960s GM full-size car. As far as I can tell, these were used across divisions and platforms for a variety of models. It was installed (improperly) in my 1964 Sport Wagon by a prior owner who (supposedly) took it from another Buick. I have no way to verify this.The good:complete setup, including:left and right tracksall cables (six)six-way switchmotor (tested and working; YOU NEED A GOOD GROUND FOR THIS!)relay (brand new; $60 from NPD)transmission (tested; see below)all bracketscomplete wiring harness and connectors, including roundThe bad:outer sides of floor mounting brackets (the "feet") have been cut (presumably to accommodate installation in a narrower vehicle)switch is sticky; it appears as if the inner return springs don't function properly; it does work, howeverin my car, the transmission and actuators worked fine; when bench testing yesterday, forward and reverse worked fine; the height, front-tilt, and rear-tilt actuators were acting goofy; I opened up the transmission, and the plastic gears look perfect, so I suspect the actuators may need to be cleaned OR they will work properly under load OR, worst-case, they are brokentrack definitely needs to be greasedcables are in decent shape EXCEPT for the plastic collars on the ends; about half of these are brokenEverything in this setup except for the tracks and cables will interchange with A-bodies without modification (bucket and bench).The tracks can be fitted onto a standard A-body bench seat frame with modification (new mounting points). They tracks can be mounted to an A-body floor, though to do so properly would require modification of the floor pan or fabrication of a plate that would work with the existing floor pan seat mounting points. If you plan to put this in a full-size car, I would recommend fixing the floor mounting brackets (the "feet"). I can provide measurements in needed.The price is $125 plus shipping from 49240.
