[quote]seats... i need new seats for my 74 duster, i want to keep them bench, black is the color im going for here...[/quote] Are you asking for full frames & springs, or new seat covers, and possibly new foam bolsters to recover your existing seats? Year One has wonderful photos of their upholstery products, and several other venders carry seat covers & foam, their prices very a bit, but not much. Hit the web for auto seat covers, or upholstery, you will find them. [quote]leaf springs, im looking for those...[/quote] For rear springs I used [url=http://www.springsnthings.com/] ESPO[/url]. You have to call them for “A†Body springs, and need to know what you want in ride height, & number of leafs. Their pricing was very completive. Other spring venders are out there as well, and one located a bit closer to you may have better shipping rates. |

im looking for full seats, the entire seat is shot, the previous owners son used to be a "MECHANIC"... -.- i use that word loosely, he did things that even i know you dont DO!... and he expiremented on this car *well from the looks of what was done it looks like he expiremented...* but the seats are gone... i would be better off taking pillows and shoving them under me with no seats... and the leaf springs, okay i will have to give them a call.. *after i call like 13015351 other people that i need to call to get this car in the order i want* |

You will have to hit the “recycle yards†or junk yards for a usable seat frame. If you can’t find the right color, it can always be recovered when the time comes. Also some of the guys have retro fitted seats from newer cars such as Neon seats I think. Perhaps someone will chime in on a good fitting substitute seat that they have used. Gee, a little over thirteen million calls to go. Who is your phone provider, I want to pick up some of their stock... |

Check with an upholstery shop for springs. Our seats use a flat “S†shaped spring common to most automotive seating. They probably have access to replacement springs, and you can purchase the tool need to install them, or look on line under “automotive upholstery supplies and toolsâ€. |
