 Hi John,
I am a bunny trucker who does upholstery as a livelihood. I should pull the 
seat on mine and create new covers. Taking them on and off is easy enough 
that I can do, If you can't find something else, send me a sample of the 
grey, if you want. I will try to match if for shine, colour and grain 
pattern. Making four covers is easier than making four...one at a time. I do 
not use cheapest vinyl a available. I do it right. The scrim foam under the 
stitching is 1/2' and the foam is backed with a piece of fabric, so the 
lands and grooves are pronounced. Labour and material, I can't quote until I 
know what vinyl is what you want. You can also put a fabric insert into the 
center of the back and bottom as well. I think that is what I will do with 
mine. I think I will also go away from black. It looks like the inside of a 
cave.

I am doing a 55Chev in genuine tuck and roll. It is two shades of grey.The 
rolls will be 2" wide and a half " high, but stuffed with 1"foam, so each 
section will have some cush to it.

Looking for ideas for repair or replace driving seat, the grey covering 
material has fallen apart.
Somewhere to get same material. or replacement seats used?
Thanks for any leads!
