Re: Upholstered Seat
Is that from scratch or is it from a shop?

Re: Upholstered Seat
That looks great. It looks like they put in new foam also.

Re: Upholstered Seat
Be sure to use liberal amounts of ARMOR ALL on that bench to help preserve the vinyl...............

Re: Upholstered Seat
hot, but when you have all vinyl seats and a rubber rug everything cleans so easy

Re: Upholstered Seat
Anyone know where one could find the OEM bench foams besides LMC that won't charge a fortune for them? Thinking about a DIY that would use Mexican saddle blankets for that ol' school look. My foams stink, bad. No choice, can't salvage them.
Saw online where I can get the extra plush upholstery foam in bulk, then just use an electric carving knife to shape them. Might do that instead. Also considering a faux reptile print in vinyl for the seat and maybe even the dash, at $35 a yard... |
