Took advantage of the somewhat milder weather and got some seat frames back from the sandblaster, and got those repainted and repaired. Replaced the broken End Springs on the 73 seat frame. Also got the tracks for the same seat restored and installed a new knob for the one that was missing.
The 81-87 frames, some of the springs were replaced. A few of the other frames received all new Grids & Springs. Before Pics |

Well crap. Discovered today my 85 seat is literally falling apart. The lower horizontal bar has detached. Also noticed the back foam seems to be attached to the frame. How is this replaceable? @TKCR, is this fixable? If not, can you PM me. I have questions on getting a rebuilt unit from you. Looking to change to black. Thanks

The foam on the back, since it’s attached, would just need repaired versus replaced. What you found, is typical on almost every seat I repair & restore. That why I restore the seats the way I do. Most upholstery shops wouldn’t care about this stuff. Most people were never even aware that their bar was even broken. Last pic shows the typical GM weld missing on the backside of the seat sack bar. :devil: |
Re: Bench Seat, Having it Reupholstered
I am reupholstering a 72 GMC C15 bench seat. I have new foam on and the new cover was a tight fit after putting it on in the Arizona sun. After reattaching the seat together, I have a 2-3 inch gap in the middle. Any tips to remedy that? Thanks for any help you can provide!

NOT For Sale
Got another seat restored and built for someone. This is a 1981-1987 Black Velour Deluxe. Fully restored. Will be picked up later this month. Gettin down to the nitty gritty on the seat cores I have left to use. Once they are used up, I will no longer be doing anymore seats. I will mainly be restoring the seatbelts only. |
