Ford Chateau Rear Fold Flat Bench/Sleeper

[Czar308]

Not mine, but hate to have it go to waste. At the local Pick N Pull for those in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's in Richmond, CA. In the $50-60 range per their website.

Folds up and lays flat. Recline lever may need a spring. Not seriously stained and totally cleanable. Did not observe any notable rips and tears. Did not smell bad. Little wet from rain, but left upright to help it dry(er). As good as any seat you can find in a wrecking yard. Give it a good thorough cleaning and put it to use. Available as of 12/19 at 3pm.

That looks in really good shape!

That would be a score for that price, even if you had it reupholstered.

Man I am looking for one just like this! I know where 2 tan seats are but I need a gray one like this!

This van is long gone. (And clear across the country apparently.) But just doing a cursory search, I found this one on car-part.com.:

And this on row52.com that may be a Chateau van(no interior photos):

Lot more options closer to Rockville on car-part.com but you would need to do more legwork with the salvage yards that dont provide photos.

Good luck.

We had a Chateau and thought this seat sucked. First off you have to remove most everything from behind the seat before making into a bed. Then the crack is uncomfortable. It is a good car seat though

Ok, thank you for your input. However, I am still looking for one in nice condition.
