Seat Upholstery - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've been looking for some original seat upholstery for my 71 bench seat. I looked at Brothers, but their material looks cheap. Does anyone know who sells the best material? Or can a good upholstery shop handel the chore? Mine won't have the houndstooth, just the regular vynal.

if your shop can't get hounstooth i'd look for a different shop it's a VERY common fabric

This is where I got mine--excellent quality and price. they have the authentic scroll cover or houndstooth if that is what you need. They carry most restoration parts but little aftermarket. It's a branch of Modern Chevrolet in Winston Salem.

Thanks Smitty, they have better prices and it sounds like their product is really top quality!

You might also try www.carsinc.com. They recently made a Custom/Deluxe cloth & vinyl cover for my Suburban using NOS cloth fabric. Excellent quality (although a little pricey).
