Buddy Buckets… Need help in TX

I have a set of original buddy buckets that need to be redone… contacted several vendors in the area and they are 8 to 10 months out on replacement covers and cushions…. Trying to find someone in the DFW metroplex area or surrounding area that can do a good job redoing these seats…any help would be appreciated!

Leo's in McKinney. Small place that's been there forever. Leo is getting up there in years but has a helper doing most of the work it seems. Just had some 71-72 bucket seat covers and foam install on my restored frames. I took everything to them and they assembled for me but they will make the covers, fix springs, foam etc. Mine were done in one day and cost was 200 a seat to do the work.

What are you hoping for?
Are you just wanting them recovered w/aftermarket supplied covers (or similar)?
Wanting them rebuilt/recovered w/updated materials but have a stock/OE look?
Wanting something custom?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
