There are quite a few places on the net and eBay that sell new upholstery like Katzkin. I have a local person that is making me custom seats and door panels for not much more than ordering new covers. This way, I don't have to do it myself. I find that I am a bit better with a wrench than with stuff like this.

Nice, but I can't stand where the seatbelt is. Mine hits my neck already with the stock location lol
Those aren't 6-way though are they? I'd rather spend $400 to get mine reupholstered then get new ones

Go to classic industries or year one, they might be expensive, but Im sure thell have what your looking for.
You could always buy some seat buns and the part with the springs, coils, buy some new skins and make yourself some old style bucket seats

Leatherseats.com made the white leather covers for my old SS and did a great job. They also do embroidering, I had them do SS in the head rest in white with a hugger orange out line.

lol From this angle, those SS badges look pink. The leather doesn't look all that tight either. I understand sitting stretches it out, but it's not very uniform *shrug* I'm just being a dick I guess. I'll go now lol

The photo was taken approx. 10 minuts after the instal was complete. After the covers were heated and worked by hand the wrinkles were completely gone. After the initial I had enough of the car for one day, I worked them with a heat gun and my hands a few days later... as you have to do with all covers.
