Bench seat cover

Does anyone know who makes an " Indian saddle blanket" seat cover for a 68 -72 chevrolet bench seat, the kind that has the pockets on the lower part of the seat cushion ? The last 3 I have ordered f,rom Amazon, ebay are either to long on the lower cushion and hang in the floor , or are too long on the back cushion and the cutouts for the seat beltsare way too forward to allow the seat belts to cinch properly when you tighten them . Tired of sending them back .also tried the big box stores and they don't fit either. Only temporary to preserve factory seat foam till I can get $ to rebuild seats, my a$$ is tired of dragging over the foam/ springs getting in and out. TIA and good luck on all your projects.

Re: Bench seat cover

Just another possible option, something I did on my 1st car back in about 1980 - same issue as you are facing. I went to a fabric shop and bought some thick vinyl, enough to cover both front seat bottom areas, and used contact cement to attach it. Turned out pretty good actually. Might be an option and probably cheaper.

Re: Bench seat cover

Most covers are going to be generic and not fit well . I plan on doing something like this on my 68
