bench seat in a '68 chebby?
i've looked through many different parts supplier catalog's and have noticed that there doesn't seem to be any replacement bench seat covers in the factory material. am i missing somethin' here? if i remember right the bench seat was standard and the buckets were optional in 68 right?i've seen plenty of the 69-71 style bench covers and even the 71-72 seat covers w/ the houndstooth material in the center sections.......i would like to have the period correct(not necessarily the exact year) style of bench seat cover......it's just that i've never seen it offered in a 67 or a 68 bench seat cover. there is the universal style bench seat cover offered for all the 67-72 years trucks but nothing specifically for the 67-68 years. what's everyone's opinion 'bout the 71-72 style of cover that has the center sections of the dr. and pass. sides in the houndstooth pattern...... say, in a earlier year truck....like my '68??

I think that the problem is there is no more of the origanal, or origanal style material around any more. (At least that is what my suppliers are telling me) I have come up the same as you when I was searching for another customer.

Give CARS, Inc. a try at www.carsinc.com. I had a heck of a time finding an original seat cover for my '72 Custom/Deluxe, and they had the material. I did a quick search for a '68 on their site and it lists the seat cover. I would also call to make sure they actually have the material available in your color. They make the cover only once one is ordered, and the one they made for me is awesome.
