Finally got registered and ready to roll, swapping out tires and I'm on the road. Now i'm looking at the interior and want to get the front seat recovered. I can go with a seat cover, split-bench with center armrest, or get reupholstered in original material. Cost is an issue, anyone have someone that they can recommend looking at? |

A third option is to take the seat to a shop and have it covered in somthing that looks close, but not original. I understand that will save you a good piece of change as compared to ordering the original material from Year One and having it installed. -Mac |

I'm leaning that way. Finding the original material is proving to be as much as getting it done with something close. |

My front bench seat is pretty clean except for one part on the passenger side. It looks like where the material was stitched, it has pulled away. I think I am going to try some fabric glue and see if I can fix it myself, otherwise, I too will be in the market for a seat cover. Only problem is, my bench isn't a split bench and I haven't found much for it. |

You can probably get reproduction fabric/vinyl at: http://www.smsautofabrics.com/ and there is a wide selection of vinyl and fabric at http://www.perfectfit.com. |

I took the local-shop route on my '71 and it turned out phenomenally well. Go see for yourself. |
