Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Thanks, My interior will be black and gray. So I was thinking maybe the seat will be mostly Black (even the back and sides) with the gray in the center where you sit. the top part will be black also with maybe the center part gray. If I can get a pick of my seat I can explain what I am trying to explain. I do not know what color stitching to go with. Black or the color of my project truck. It is called sunburst Orange.I would be going with cloth fabric. If I were to decide to take the plunge, what price would I be looking at?
Thanks for all the work you do, John

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Bellefontaine OH. About 45 mins NW of Columbus. I had a guy come up from TN, for a seat. We met at my Brothers place. He lives near Chillicothe, almost 2 hrs South from me.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
1977-1980 Carmine Red. This was done for someone local, for his 1979 Chevy. Fully restored frame & tracks. New foam was used also.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Doesn’t mean that can’t be damaged another way, hit with a forklift or something. I shipped a grille once, and that is exactly what it looked like, that it got ran over.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Depends on who you ship it with. Grills (light) are easy to throw around, throw on the floor, etc. That big heavy bench is big and bulky and hard to throw around. But yes it too could get damaged, but it is harder to damage because of the size and weight.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Saved a couple seats from being trashed. These will make good candidates for restoration. Both are 81-87 seats. Went to Indiana and got them.

I made another trip to the junkyard today for an inner fender. The pass side inner fender on my truck is really bad, rubs the tire and has hardly any fasteners left to hold it in place. |

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Decatur. It was about 1 1/2hr drive for me. Not bad for a Sunday afternoon.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Started stripping down the Tan seat. It had clearing been recovered by someone, at one time. I hope it wasn’t an Upholstery Shop, because this is not how it should be done!! This is not the correct way to repair foam. Broken springs need to be replaced. Ever wonder why your leaning towards the door, when you’re sitting in your seat? Broke springs are why!!
And they obviously didn’t know how to shoot bolts either🙄.

Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered
Picked up 3 more donors today. And a special surprise!! The Grille was laying inside of a Van, that was parked beside the truck I was getting the last seat from.
