A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Chevrolet Nova four door saloon, 1962 to 1965, excluding bench seat models. Part number SB254.
Two qualifiers, and both are fitment. Four door, and not a bench.
Check what is actually in the car
The Chevy II came in several body styles with more than one seat arrangement, and sixty years is long enough for a great many to have been changed. Do not order on what the car left the factory with. Lift the carpet, look at what is bolted down, and send us a photograph if it is not obvious.
The four door is the sensible one to build
Two door Novas of this era carry a premium and the four doors do not, which makes a saloon the cheaper way into a car with real potential. The Chevy II is light for an American car of the period and takes a small block without complaint.
Practical
Sixty year old floors are rarely original. Get the carpet up and look before you spend anything, because a bracket can only feed seat load into sound structure.
Ask us about retro trimmed shells. Handed, so order twice for a pair.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Planted Technology Chevrolet Sub-Frames: Ready For The 2025 Racing Season. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Chevrolet Nova 4 Door Sedan [Excluding Bench Seat Models] (1962-1965). Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
