Just picked these up today with a center console...was wanting to find out what they may be out of, gonna be putting them into my dad’s 70 C10 and he wants them black...wanted to see if I could find some new seat covers for them and do them ourselves.

Those will even have the bolt holes line up if you bend the rear mounting tabs up instead of the downward angle they were originally.

i think you will find that a '70 floor pan and an '80's floorpan are drastically different. prepare to do some fabrication and welding

Late K5 seat tracks and mounts would probably work well in a '70. '85 or '86 (I don't remember the first year anymore) through '91 would be the year range to get.
