Buddy Bucket Bling
Just got my seats back from the upholstery shop, after a 3 week wait
 After seeing firsthand the work this shop did with boardmember Into69z buckets, I knew I found the right place  Completely restored with NEW seat buns and custom stiched seat covers. Covers were made from heavy duty marine fabric, along with blk/wht houndstooth inserts. The shop used my original covers as a pattern to sew the new covers. This is one thing I left to a pro, and I am glad I did. They are show quality, super firm and comfortable. They also make the truck's interior smell "new" again  I am a VERY happy camper

Re: Buddy Bucket Bling
Congrats, you should be very happy. They look great! Was that the light green set you almost sold a while back? If they are, I bet you're glad you didn't let them go now...

Re: Buddy Bucket Bling
Those are awful! bring them here to me and I am willing to save you the embarassment of putting them in your nice truck, I just couldnt live with myself knowing they are in your truck looking that way.
Ok, I was just kidding, they look great!

Re: Buddy Bucket Bling
Man, I have buckets and now you got me thinking hounds tooth inserts. Those look really nice. Well, another possible upgrade to the truck goes on my list.

Re: Buddy Bucket Bling
Super nice seats. I really like white interiors. The houndstooth gives a bit of class too.

Re: Buddy Bucket Bling
Thanks everyone! They are going in my 72 project truck. I am almost finished with the interior, I decided to do the interior before final bodywork and paint. The name of the shop is Ramirez Upholstery in Rialto.
