Houndstooth is cooler in summer and warmer in winter. It wears very well--had custom houndstooth sport buckets in my 72 Cheyenne Super for many years.

THAT LOOKS REAL NICE, BUT DO YOU KNOW IF THEY MAKE ANYTHINK A LITTLE LIGHTER, MORE LIKE THIS COLOR IN THE PICTURE? DOES ANYONE KNOW?

I love the brown. can you get the vinyl and the houndstooth by the yard so door pannels and sunvisors can be made to match. Im using a det of buckets out of a 68 scout so I may need the front seats custome made.

You can have any seat covered in any material in any pattern/style.It`s called custom upholstery.
I have some utility buckets I plan to do something like Frank did.

I`m curious what the thread starter decided on,anyone else?
