Re: Show us your seats
I don’t remember which catalog I ordered it from but it is houndstooth. I was just trying ro match the blue and I think I got lucky because it’s close.

Does it still move back and forth? How did you handle the overlap at the back of the bracket? |

Re: Show us your seats
Hounds tooth in my 65 with lowered seat brackets. I'm 6'2" so with the all new padding I was looking out of the top of the windshield.
Currently doing my door panels in the same material! |

Have a friend that has his own trim shop, so had him whip this up for me a while back.

Re: Show us your seats
I picked up a seat from a '65 the other day, and it needs a few springs in the back. Where do I find them? Please don't say "you local seat guy" as I am in a very challenged area for that.

Re: Show us your seats
Some of the truck resto parts places have spring kits . I’ve used springs from a donor seat before and tied pieces next too the broken springs. I’ve also welded broken springs and and again reinforced the area with a piece of old donor spring

Re: Show us your seats
Hey, he's been having some health issues lately and probably won't be making any more covers. I think he has one finished 64/65 pattern cover in stock, but that's all. PM me if interested I'll forward his phone number.

Buckets are from an ’04 Honda Civic. Center seat was made from the Civic’s back seat. I also made a cup holder.

Re: Show us your seats
I love Honda seats. I have always found them vary comfortable.
