highlander seat cover? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Looking for vendors where I could buy a white/blue highlander seat cover for a 68 c10?

Nobody offers one off the shelf. But check with board member Truckseats. He has helped a few guys on the board.

Your other option is to buy the fabric from SMS Auto fabric www.smsautofabrics.com/ and take it to an upholsterer of your choice.

Either way, prepare to part with a few bucks. They're not cheap. I have a 72 Highlander and am going to get one sooner or later.

Good luck.

Contact Tim at www.classictruckseats.com

He's here on the board as well. He can have one made for you. I've got one and it's top notch. I can't imagine how anyone else could make a better fitting seat cover than what he sells.

I wouldn't wait. I seem to remember a thread, a year or more ago, that claimed the blue plaid material was running out.

Do these covers have the scroll on the vinyl area like the original?

Yes they do.

Actually, not normally. Make sure you specify that you want it, and it's a bit of extra work and cost. Work it thru Tim and let him run interference with SMS - the parchment vinyl with scroll work comes thru them. I may have been one of the earlier ones to repro with scrollwork, but it was quite painful. Hopefully the process has smoothed out a bit now. Btw, Tim is great to work with and great to have on your side with SMS (not that SMS is uncooperative - but, as an example, the initial hack at my vinyl was actually the wrong color (almost a sand color) and Tim intercepted it at his shop before assembly, sent it back, took care of everything). Cannot recommend him highly enough - he's the ONLY person I'd buy one of these from.

Thanks Jocko, Really like your truck! Is it all white? Or a 2-tone blue/white?
Seats look fantastic-I'll start the journey.....
