Unhappy Seat covers

Where would I find a seat cover for my truck? My seat on the driver's side is all ripped up, and the seat cover I bought from Advance Auto doesn't fit. It seems that seat covers nowadays are smaller for modern seats. Does LMC or someone carry seat covers that fit our old bench seats? I have a 1969 K20. By the way, I am in West Michigan. Thanks in advance.

I used a cheapo AutoZone $40ish cover for three years...then it finally started to look as bad as the seat under it used to (as soon as I pulled said cover off, I found out the seat underneath had gotten several orders of magnitude worse) and I replaced the whole mess with second-row seats from a '99 Suburban.

That's the main reason I went with a newer seat. Looks better, IMO, certainly far more comforatble, I get a center flip-down console, cupholders...

...and it only cost $150 from the junkyard!

Has these I believe. When I tried to use all the after market types Wal Mart, Auto Zone, etc. for my Catalina nothing fit. Then I went to my favorite parts supplier and he got some special ordered for me. He is not open on the Weekends, a Ma and Pa place. I can ask him on Monday where he contacted to get my specially made. They were like $110.00 a piece but look awesome. The thick blanket type. Wootdog

Check with fellow board member PICKMUP. He sells high quality covers for good prices. There may be a waiting period to have them done.
