In need of bus seats near Wilmington NC

Hey crew I'm looking for some bus seats near Wilmington NC. Anybody have some they can get rid of? If not in Wilmington anywhere between here and Richmond VA off of interstate 95 would be fine too. My bus thread is the Odd Ox and saidly I'm working in NC the old ox is back in VA not being lived in and in need of batteries. Thanks in advance if some seats are tracked down.

Re: In need of bus seats near Wilmington NC

I have the metal frames, some seat bottoms and maybe some of the uppers if ya want them...No cost except shipping.. problem is I live near St. Louis MO. just thought I'd offer up. I have been slowly placing the seat cushions in the trash but if anyone wants them they can have.

Someone wanting to INSTALL seats? Now I've heard everytihng. Next it will be "can someone help me make my bus yellow again?" Or "how do I get the stickers back on"?

Re: In need of bus seats near Wilmington NC

Haha no not working on a bus. Thanks for offering those metal frames folks but looking for whole seats. I am an animal wrangler for a tv show called revolution and we are building some wagons for our horses to pull. Bus seats would be the perfect fit for one we are buildin now and also we have already built a bunch using car seats and truck bench seats. So need a different look.

You know that school bus seats don't have 4 even legs, right?

Yeah I know there will be some fabricating, cutting, welding, grinding involved.

Re: In need of bus seats near Wilmington NC

for local all i can suggest is craigslist.

the local drag strip did that here. took 4 bus seats, made legs with pipe and the flanges at the bottom and put on a home made frame with golf cart running gear and wheels. pulled with an ATV. rough as heck though!
