Re: Putting later seat cover on '68 bench seat...

I am curious if the vendor has made a universal size that splits the difference, or, if they don't care about the difference in thickness. It will look great when it's done, it will just make you sit really high up and closer to the steering wheel.
Thanks for the clarification. Thats what I wishing I could do, is compare the 2 side by side, but haven't had that opportunity yet. And since then, I sold the restored 67-68 seat frame and foam to someone. I'm just glad I did purchase 67-68 seat bottom foam. I did double check my records on that, and it was in fact 67-68.
