I'm replacing the convertible top on my 1964 Dynamic 88. The recommended procedure is pull the seats- or at least, the rear seat. I thought the interior was nice on my car until I took it apart and found several dead mice and their nests under the seat. So, that's why the car smells bad! Carpets have holes in them, and the door cards and rear seat arm rests are poor. I can buy carpets that fit (supposedly) but can I buy seat covers to replace the original vinyl? OPG has foam and hog rings, but so far, I can't find the vinyl seal covers/upholstery. Also, my 1964 Dynamic has a metallic panel on the door cards. Is that material available?

Does anyone have a source for the seat upholstery and door panels?

Also, the dash appears to be built in sections. I haven't dug into the tech manuals yet, but it looks like the metal center piece is attached, probably with screws from behind. Am I on the right path here? My lower dash is badly scratched. I'd love to repaint it if I'm going to tear everything out. These are stock photos from the internet, not my car. They represent the parts I want to reproduce.



Does anyone know where I can get a clock?

 

If you want OE style seat covers for a concours restoration then you can buy the material from SMS and have an auto interior shop recreate the seat covers.

If you just have a cruiser and you're not concerned with originality you can order seat covers here. I bought seat covers from them before for my 86 Ford F250 and they look great.

Chevy Impala seat foams will work fine.
As suggested, an upholstery shop can make the covers for you.
The "chain stitch" material is available from SMS.
Impala door cards will work too.

 

Thanks for the replies! Unfortunately, no one seems to have GM B-body upholstery. The materials are available sure, but the only way I've found to this point is to have a shop do the upholstery, using my old seats to make patterns. SMS is an excellent source- thanks for that. They can even make the door panels so they're just like factory, and they supply the vinyl to do the seats- again, just like factory. Or I can choose a high quality material that won't match the factory material exactly. Those seem to be my options. Unfortunately, I can't just order some Katskinz and do it myself.

 

If you remove the OE seat covers from your seats you can send them into Automotive Interiors to be copied. They'll recreate the seat covers with a material of your choice (which you can order free samples of).

 

If you're not a stickler for authenticity.
Impala seat covers will work just fine.
Most people will never know the difference.

 

HI, before you order anythlng from SMS check their reviews online,there are hundreds of complaints .Seems they take your money and it takes forever to get your order.They dont return your money and dont return your calls.They keep stringing you along making promises they dont keep.I have been waiting for a vinyl top for 3 months that i was supposed to have in 6 weeks. They dont return messages, i have given up on them, buyer beware.
