Houndstooth seat question.

[capev86]

my dad's 72 burb was one of those special packages...looked just like the one in the brochure. mariner blue with white roof, 350/350 with 3.73 rear, tinted windows, tilt wheel, front a/c, 6 passenger white vinyl with blue/black paid inserts, full trim package, overload 1/2 leaf rear springs, etc. my dad has told me several times that it was a special demo upgrade on top of the standard custom deluxe trim. in contrast, the 84 burb custom deluxe he had afterwards had an overdrive trans and 9 passenger seating but was sadly lacking otherwise.

i have the chrome yankee cab lights saved from the truck back in '95 when we found it in a local salvage yard (my dad sold it in '91). i plan to install those and a recently acquired pair of shorty arm tripod mirrors like my 72 dad's burb had had because they combine sleek mounting with the big 7.5x10.5 head you get with towing mirrors.

so it appears my 72 burb has the blue on blue houndstooth (not to be confused with plaid). anyone know of a source for that material. figured it might be cheaper to just get my front seat upholstery repaired rather than dish out 350 bucks for a whole new seat cover?
