The original seat in my '49 was covered in black vinyl and you can imagine how hot it got in Sacramento in the summer with no a/c.
I finally switched seats for alot of reasons. The one I have now is a 3rd row out of an Astro van. Its covered in some sort of tweed fabric and is so much better to sit on. Still no a/c.
