Re: '68 C20 396 4sp Utility ...resurrection :)
Haven't updated in a bit...
- I had posted previously about an issue with the rebuilt carb. I did contact the vendor, and after checking a few things on my end, I sent it back to them to look at again. I need to follow up with them to see where that is. I did however get the Fawn upholstery from SMS, and seat is now redone. Going to get that back in the truck, ...and wait for the carb I was lucky that by chance a good friend (less than a mile away) noted his neighbor does upholstery work. They stopped over Sunday to take a look, I dropped the seat of Monday night, done in less than 24 hours

Dude. Seriously. That seat looks amazing. It's a pet peeve of mine when you can spot an aftermarkert seat by the wrinkles because it's not "tight" enough. That looks great! Color looks spot on too.

I actually commented to the guy who did it, how tight it fit. He said it was 'fun', that it was like bus seat material. I got the seat back in the truck last night, you should see it with the seat belts I'll grab some pics once I get it back out of the garage...

Cover looks good!!!
Does your seat have the coil springs in the bottom, too??? I have a salvage yard seat out of a 68 C30, has coils in back only. After having learned A LOT here, about seats recently, seemingly anything goes with seating. |
