I've got a 65 coronet with a bench seat and the shifter on the steering column. I found a guy near me that is selling bucket seats and a center console out of a 65 coronet 500. The seats and console are in pretty rough shape. There is also no hardware. The seats do not have the rails, and the console does not have any of the brackets or cables. Before I bother to go look at what this guy has I have a few questions.
1. Would it even be worth my time and money to buy this without the hardware? Are the seat rails, and console brackets impossible to find?
2. If I can find a set of seat rails how much will I have to modify my floor pans to make the bucket seats fit?
3. Would the console shifter be cable operated like the column shifter, or do the console shifters use an actual linkage?
4. If the console shifter is cable operated would I be able to convert it to a linkage?
5. What would be a fair price to pay for the seats and console?
