They might be '66 Coronet 500 seats, though something about the chrome backs looks different.
My'66 parts manual is out in the workshop, so I'll try to remember to look tomorrow.

They look a lot like the seat my grandfather's 1966 300 had with the chrome treatment. They may also be for the high end B-body as well.

Can't help with telling you what they are, but according to my parts manual, they are not from any '66 model Mopar. They are similar to the Coronet 500 seats but the groove on the chrome trim does not appear on the '66. The number of rows of stitching is also different.

My next best guess is a '67 Dodge premium model B-body. Hope someone with a '67 manual can check it out for you.

The tracks are worth more than the seats, in my opinion. You can mount any bucket with those tracks. All Mopar buckets seemed to have the same square bolt pattern.

either way im gonna sell them as a whole. bucket seats are going for a premium in any condition around here. ive seen a set that looked like they came out of a car that caught fire, nothing there but the wires go for $250 so i should have no trouble selling these.
