Best Answer

The floor mounts for the bench seat will not match up with the buckets. So, you need two things: 1) a set of floor mount brackets that will have to be welded to the floor and 2) a set of bucket seats witht the proper tracks to match up with the floor mount brackets that you are going to install.

While it is true that many of the bucket seats used in Pontiacs, Buicks, Chevs etc were the same or very similar, the seat tracks that bolt the seat to the floor and allow it to move forward and back, are not the same for all those cars. Only 62 to 64 Impala buckets will work in the 62. If you get seats that don't have the right tracks you will have to modify what you have to fit as no one is making these tracks at this time.

So, get your floor brackets and get the right seats and bolt them together. Now put the seats in place and move them about until the bottoms of the brackets match up with the countours of the floor. Once you are happy with the position, tack the brackets into place. Remove the seats and weld the rest of the brackets to the floor.

Re-mount the seats onto the brackets and YOU"RE DONE!
