Re: The 1960 - 1966 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Factory Correct Restoration Thread
I am reupholstering my seat for my 60 C10. Does anyone have the dimensions for the pattern shown here? Need width of center triangular shaped section on seat back at top and bottom, width of vinyl at top of seat back and front of bottom seat, etc.

while were on the subject, who offers the the best or closest to OEM product ?, I recently ordered a seat spring repair kit from LMC looked nothing like the original, again with classic Industries a part that was supposed to be Exact fit but nowhere close, i realize they are re-pop for a reason but would be nice if they tried a little to get it right, I feel like the 60-66 crowd is not being represented as well, Oh well, just a morning rant

I wonder if 6's and V8's were different... I wouldn't be surprised if the years were different too. |
Re: The 1960 - 1966 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Factory Correct Restoration Thread
Surprising also is that GM never kept an archive on the vehicles they built. I had a 63 Dodge 440 model and got the build sheet from the Dodge archives easily. Ferd probably doesn't either so I guess when you build and sell as many car as they do . . .

It's a 66 Custom, V8, factory air. It was originally sold In Paducah TX but I don't know where it was built. I haven't looked at the VIN.
It would be interesting to see if trucks that have that same configuration would have the same hose clamp styles. You could even go as far to say that just the fact that it has AC might make it different from other trucks. Or, whatever clamps they had on the line at the time might be a possibility. I know what you're saying... I restore 1st generation Camaros and the researching them can get crazy! It's definitely a lot easier to research them compared to the trucks. There's so much more Camaro info available. |

Here is a couple of pics of it., Can't have a picture of AC stuff without the ashtray. Also Factory AC should have 5 bladed fan, heavy duty radiator, shroud etc.
