Ordered new saddle colored seat covers for my front electric split bench for my 71 Skylark Custom. I'm stoked, this is a nice piece of vinyl. Perfect color match too. Now to find someone who can install it perfectly. I was referred to a guy who works out of his house....he just had surgery and cannot do the job for a couple months.
Yeah the kits are nearly brainless. There is a new shop that just come in near me last Fall. www.topstitchinteriors.com looks pretty spendy, but appears to be good work.
I don't think $300 is out of line. Check with Mark's Upholstery in O'Fallon. 636-281-4959 ...he does nice work.
On my 69 Riv I paid $800 for two front buckets, including material. They had to transfer all the square buttons too. So $300-500 labor for good work is not out of line.
Thanks everyone. I've checked with the local shop as well as all the recommendations made here.... When I get the car home, it's still engine-less, I'll pull the seat out and see what I'm up against. If I don't do it, and I don't see that happening, I'm going to stick with the guy I was originally referred to, he was the least expensive.
When you come down to the STL your welcome to stop in for a visit. I live close to Kingshighway and also close to Brian Smartin isn't too far out west
