Back seat for 68 malibu

[Questadg]

I need a back seat for my 68 Malibu. I am pretty sure the 68-72 a body ones will work. What about 68-72 a body 4 door models? Also, will 65-67 ones work? Thanks.

I think they are the same except for convertible rear seats are not as wide ,4 door seats are the same too.

The answer is NO. The seat is wider on '68-'69's than on '70-'72's. On '70-'72's the seat is narrower because of the side armrests being moulded into one piece that goes all the way down to the car's floor, and the seat backs have a spacer on each side to make them the same width as the bottom seat. By comparison, the seats on '68-'69's go all the way to the "door panel" (which is more flat) with a smaller armrest which is screwed through the panel, in the same manner as the armrests on the front doors and to make it more complicated- the BOP cars 68-69 had interior options that gave them the possibility of a wider OR a narrower rear seat... and the narrower rear seat was still wider than the convertible rear seats, which were the narrowest. No sure on a 4 door.

Do you need a rear seat bottom for a 4dr. I am putting together a 1966 Coup and it came with a 4dr rear bottom. I have already picked up a GTO a body rear bottom. Here is my e-mail and I can send you measurements. [email protected]
