Cloth seat upholstery question
 

Looking into recovering the seat in my 74, my wife wants cloth since vinyl gets to hot in the summer. Where have people found nice cloth seat upholstery that is period correct and will match medium blue interior? I see a lot of velour and would rather stay away from that.

Your choices are going to be all vinyl, vinyl/velour combo or leather. None of the suppliers offer cloth. The only way your going to get cloth, is to take your seat to an upholstery shop and have them order what you want in cloth and they can make you one.
Ive used Classic Industries, and they have nice covers. I know you said no velour, but the vinyl/velour combo is nice. Here's a photo of it.

Alright, I'll have to check into that. Velour just doesn't seem like it would hold up very well over time. Here is what I have currently, something like this would be ideal.

I've seen fabric like that. I have their sample book. So the stuff is nice compared to the pics on the computer. But you can order a sample book, they are only like $5, I believe.

I bought mine through Chris Lucas who was a vendor on here CaptKaos, I believe he runs the site 73-87.com top quality and excellent fit and customer service

So these samples look like what you have.

And these would be all the blues that they have. And these are all tweed.
