Upholstery questions

who makes or sells the best houndstooth seat covers? I have seen them anywhere from $279 from vendors like classic industries to $369 from other vendors. Anyone with knowledge of the best quality? Im not looking for the best deal, just want the best quality.

Same question for replacement seat foam....

Last question is the seat am I re-covering is a stock 1970 bench seat. The seat back does not tilt forward for rear access. Is the 71-72 bench seats the same?

Thanks for the help....

Re: Upholstery questions

http://www.ricksupholstery.com/ Real good quality houndstooth stuff from this guy. I have ordered twice for houndstooth. One bench, and buddy buckets. They might not be the cheapest but I will order from them again next month. I was very pleased and they are willing to please in customer service. Sometimes they put excess covers on ebay at a discount. They told me the reason why is covers once made should be installed on the seat shortly after being made to look top notch to prevent creases in the material. So they don't pre-make in advance let them sit around for several months in a warehouse or whatever.
