That sounds pretty out of stock to me lol

My truck is 87 model. I'm going to hit up a couple of upholstery shops and see what they say. If it's a good deal more money, maybe I'll wait the 4-6 weeks

That’s not out of stock, when it needs to be made, lol. Even an upholstery shop is going to have to make one. Unless someone has one laying around, which I do.
Did you not catch the part that I have the SaddleTan cover already? It’s new, I just haven’t needed to use it.
Send me a PM if you would like it.

PM Sent!

Yeah when we made one back in the day it took awhile. Certainly not 4 to 6 weeks though. I remember the headliner being a very easy job. I should have kept that pattern I made for the bench seat.

But I never thought I'd still like these trucks all these years later. I guess once you own one you're into them for life

Not sure why that question was asked. But, NO I don’t. But I sure spend a lot of money there.
I’m retired now, have been for 3 years. So I have no plans to work for anyone but myself, much less move out of state!

Just curious about that one. There are some members of these boards that own businesses.

I do restore seats and seat belts for people, but I wouldn’t call it a business, although it keeps me busy. But owning or working for USA1, lol no. That sounds like more work than I could handle. I’m cutting back on restoring seats. The seatbelts are keeping me busy enough. Plus I cut grass for my elderly neighbors and myself. So during the summer, that alone keeps me hopping.
