Grand Prix... Why didn't they come with swivel bucket seats? Pontiac seemed to have their own style of bucket seat. Was the swivel bucket a GM- Chevrolet offering only?

Was an option for Cutlass owners, too. I've often wondered why Buick and Pontiac didn't offer them, too.

My buddy has a '74 h/o that has swivels.  I never really noticed that Buicks & Pontiacs didn't have them.  drunken

I've noticed that back in the 80's, no swivels in the buicks and pontiacs. But I've seen Olds with and without swivel buckets. Their regular buckets, if I remember correctly were squared off on the headrest area.

You are right, I have the regular ones (from a '76 cutlass) in my '74.Grand Prix question IMG_20140517_204050062_zpsqcxemnyr
