Buick reproduction seat covers, cloth and leather!

Spoolin Around · 09-28-2003, 09:13 PM

Guys, I am working with my good friend in Oshawa who specializes in custom interiors for hot rods etc. We have taken the covers off a set of original seats I had for a patern and he is going to reproduce OEM quality seat covers for our Buicks! He has sourced the OEM material and proper colour for our cars, also has drafted the power six emblem to match perfect.

We are doing cloth sets for now, but I am going to do up a set of leathers for my GN this winter for that trick look! As for prices, we will be doing them reasonable to start, but don't have exact price yet. To be determined.....

Just curious what the interest level is out there? It will be nice to have a Canadian source for these, it will be much cheaper for us all. I will keep you all posted. Pics coming soon!

Brad, sounds great. thumb_up I could use a set of grey for the T-Type and I'm sure at some point the GN's will need to be freshened up.

Keep us posted. canada

How about headrest covers? They are hard to find for T-type in burgundy

Yeah, I'd be interested in how much $ we're talkin'; my seats are smellin' like ass.

nice to see someone taking a "Canadian initiative" for needed parts for these cars . we have the resoures and skills available to produce almost any part that can be obtained States side . at the same price or better. and being equal in quality or if not better . Interiors today , "Spoolin Around" Alum blocks tomorrow .

IMO there are a few people on this board who have the ability to research and also the knowledge ,and in some cases the resoures to develop products for these cars . it just takes the right person who is willing to commit and take the time/chance .
