Seat Covers for the Utility Buckets?
Does anyone have a source for new seat covers for the wider utility type buckets I have in my 71 Blazer?

SMS has the matrl, but you'll have to have them made up locally. cost is about 400 from SNS. I have some extra matrl. if you need it

Re: Seat Covers for the Utility Buckets?
Thanks for the info. I'm just getting started on this project so it will be a while until I get to the seats, but I am trying to source stuff that I will need.

Re: Seat Covers for the Utility Buckets?
also, there are two differant seat bases, one is from a van I believe and sits more level
What kinda shape are your foams in? here's some food for thought

Re: Seat Covers for the Utility Buckets?
Bringing back this thread, is it still the case that nobody makes a reproduction seat cover for the utility buckets? Just want to make sure.
I called LMC, based on the post by RLONG above, but they had no idea what I was asking for. |

Re: Seat Covers for the Utility Buckets?
I bought the fabric(vynil) from SMS in washington state or there abouts. Gave the stuff to my upholsterer and had him make them up...
They both expanded foam and non-expanded, in my eye the non-expanded seemed to match the grain better Dont think you will find ready made seat covers for the utility seats
