    Seat covers and door panels

    Hi there, after exhausting efforts locally looking for somebody to reupholster my front and back bench seat in a 53 Buick special I have come to the conclusion that my best bet is probably custom seat covers. I found a couple guys that say they will do them but that they have never done them before and the prices that they are quoting are ridiculous. Anybody know where I can get custom seat covers that look good? Also door panels? It's a 4 door by the way. Thanks for any help in advance.

    I had an auto upholstery shop for 38 years and made kits for all makes and models. Although I am now retired, one of my employees and his brother have a shop here in town that will make your new upholstery for you. I will say that they do an excellent job and guarantee their work 100%. What you will need to do is remove the old seat upholstery from your seats, take the wires out of the edges, and send the covers to these guys. They will reproduce them using NOS materials (or modern materials if you prefer), and sew them up the same way the factory did (or in a custom design of your liking). They will then send them back to you, so you (or a local upholstery shop) can reinstall them on your seats. You can go to their website http://texasautoupholstery.com/ and see their craftmanship for yourself. They are fantastic! Or you can give them a call at 360-771-3565. You won't be disappointed.
    Best Regards,
    Ron
