This winter I want to reupholster the seats in my Rallye 350. In my search for new seat covers I started questioning the pattern used in 1970 and what is currently on my Bench Seats in the car. The seats do not match the New features section of the 1970 Product Selling Information Manual or what some Seat Cover manufactures have on their sites.
I am also working on a website project and would like my information to be correct. Was their a Dealer Information Brochure that showed pictures of the different seat options available? The colors and patterns available? I know the Rallye was only available in black but I am also interested in the other options for the F-85, Cutlass, and Cutlass S. What I am looking to do is something like what is on 442Bro.com. http://442restoration.homestead.com/...Interiors.html
Thanks again for the help.

Thanks Joe,
I understand what you're saying, I just bought a 1970 Product Selling Information Manual, not cheap but I wanted it.
I just did a quick search for the 1970 Dealer Album, and that is going to be hard to find. I guess I will keep looking but for now I still not sure what the Bench Seat Pattern should look like for the F-85 Rallye 350.
I'm guessing that the aftermarket suppliers are primarily selling upholstery for 442s, which would have used the Cutlass S pattern, not the F-85 pattern.
Update: Found a 1970 Dealer Album, and confirmed that I do have the correct Bench Seat Covers installed; they are in good shape and look original. So my winter project may shift to just fixing the broken springs and replacing the foam.
