I gave a set of ugly old ones to Ahamlito a few years back. Not sure if he found a use for them but worth a check since he is in that area.

They are either at the bottom of the junk the CFO keeps in my storage shed, or I gave them to Devin Wells in 2013. I traded him the seats and pedestals and the dinette from my Sequoia for the jack-knife sofa. I have Odyssey seats and different year model pedestals in the Sequoia now.

Devin dismantled a 1973 Sequoia in Altoona, AL about the same time so he had 4 seats and 4 pedestals. I haven't heard from him in over two years, so I don't know if he is still talking to us. He hasn't answered the email note or the text message I sent him. The phone number I have for him might be wrong.

These are the cockpit seats, correct? If so, do they have the armrests that fold down into the bottom cushion or swivel on the seat back?

As long as they are the original ones, I am fine. But 700mls to get the
seats is way to far away, in my book.

I always see if anyone that has space traveling in the right direction can move them closer. And a series of folks doing that might relay them to within 200 miles or so. Then it becomes worthwhile.

Check your spam folder. I sent you something this morning.

Yeah. That old Sequoia was in rough shape. I went up one day and helped him pull some parts. I have the ladder off it, haven't got around to replacing mine yet. I just remember getting stung by about 2 dozen wasps when I reached under the counter to get at a screw and broke through a nest.

The two that came from my Sequoia were clean. Devin must have taken the ones out of the Sequoia in Altoona and sent those to you. If he didn't send you four OEM cockpit seats, then the two out of my Sequoia are still in the U.S. someplace (maybe a landfill).

If Devin didn't send you four seats/pedestals, then there are still two OEM seats somewhere in AL or TN.

I take it you only want original seats but if not, I've got two just like
the ones in this and adjacent photos:

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/our-x-birchaven/p443.html

They were removed from the cockpit when I installed Honda seats last year.
Not perfect but in good shape and cheap -- if picked up. They're actually
more comfortable than their replacements, IMHO.

Ken,
I'd love to take those orange chairs off your hands if you are wanting to get rid of them.
If you'll be at Bean Station, I can get Eric Tanner to ferry them up here for me.
Let me know what you want for them.

Jared,

Bean Station should work. If you like them when they arrive, you can send
me $50 or so. Remind me when the time approaches, 'tho' I'll put it on my
calendar now.
