The hump in the middle of the car is where the tranny/driveshaft/everything else goes in a rear wheel drive car. And the bump to the right of the hump in the 4th gen (Correct me if I'm wrong) was where the catalytic converter was. So... We're gonna get a hump without a bump if that's what you're asking for. As for a front bench seat, I don't really see it being feasible since it's a cockpit style seat layout. Rear bench would really be pushing but it doesn't hurt to ask. Sorry bud.

Bucket seats belong in sports cars, bench seats need to stay in the trucks.

I just don't think the bench seat fits the Camaro image.

Bench seats should fall by the wayside. They're unattractive and most people opt for buckets unless they are just after transportation without the frills.

I won't even purchase a truck with a bench seat.

I'd go for a bench seat in the back though. I know the back seat isn't necessarily roomie to begin with, but as a family man I would love to see a bench seat in the back.

I dont call my back seats "back seats" i call that part of the car "a place where you can lay" because theres zero room for sitting.

Pssst...Chevy pickup, bench seat, SS looking hood, Z28 badge on the fenders of course for this level of custom you must have a "racing" bench seat. Bet the gals can't wait for a ride.
