Smile Buddy Buckets Done! :)

Well...I've never put upholstery on anything..but after i found out the upholstery guy wanted 500 to just install the covers and foam..i decided to try...
Turned out ok...(still not sure if my buckets are original or not as the foam didnt fit too good on the one i replaced but oh well)....
I also installed my carpet kit (much easier than seat covers heehe)....
I'm happy but I know it's not perfect...wish i had before pix..it was destroyed and origianl red houndstooth pattern.
Heres a few pix...thx for your help.

Nice work, the seats & the seat belts look great! Not sure why but there is something really cool about that pic of the front wheel with that 67-68 dogdish cap on those jacking instructions.

I've got a set, I think I bought it from Byrd and besides being black, they look the same as yours.
