Howdy!
The original interior on my '61 Lark regal wagon is starting to suffer from dry rot at the seams, so I'm looking at having the seats recovered. I want to buy the correct vinyl from SMS myself (bought samples, looks perfect) and then shop a couple local upholstery shops to do the labor. I know the logical thing would be to go to an upholstery shop and just have them estimate it out, but I don't want to string anyone along, and I want to see if I can get a better price if I have the material in hand. I may have to resort to consulting a shop, but thought I'd ask here first, just in case. So I was just curious to know if anyone has recently done their seats and remembers how much vinyl and piping they used to do the job. I've got the split bench in the front.
Thanks!
