Need help identifying 1967front and rear seats

I have a 1967 442 Post Sports Coupe.
Does anyone have pictures of what the original upholstry looks like for front buckets and rear seat? Has to be from a Post car as I have been told that it is not the same as the Holiday Coupe and Convertible.

67 post interior

Thanks Wes for trying.

Thanks Bill, my back seat upholstery looks like your so I am pretty convinced mine is original. I will now look for new upholstery.

Anyone have any idea where I can find this upholstery.
Legendary does not have it available and Year One lists rear bench but no bucket seats and they don't show a picture.

If you could find a set of original covers to send to Ledgendary they would make them for you... But they have to have something in hand to make the templates from.

Otherwise your best bet would be to get dimentions of the ribs & pleats from one of the members here, and take them to an upholstery shop and have them make you custom covers with that pattern.

That pattern should not be hard to replicate since its just stiched, but it likely won't be "perfect"- but it'll be closer than whats available.

You could look for a vendor that sells PUI covers that are "made" for the Sport Coupe/Post Car and have nothing but trouble and aggravation.

New seat covers nearly done

I finally made the decision to have the original vinyl seats renewed. I could not find a source for 1967 Post car (33807M). The original skins were removed and kept intact for any future needs. Patterns were made that match all the dimensions to make the new covers.

The rear bench and back are done. The front buckets are sewn and being attached to the seats. Probably less than a week to have everything back to the car.

This was a major move on my part to do this. In trying to keep the car completely original, I have altered something, but could return if needed.

Got the new seat covers completed and back from the local Merriam, Ks trim shop. Very pleased with the results.
In the pictures, the reds change a lot depending on the lighting in each shot.

Agreed. that looks fabulous.

I had no idea there was a difference in upholstery between a holiday and a post. I have holiday covers on my car.

I know this is an old thread but I have to ask. Since the time of this thread is there any supplier offering 1967 post interior yet?

As already said PUI makes ill fitting post seat covers (in my case) but you cannot buy from them. OPGI sells them and others I believe and they are from PUI. They only ones I know of unless sewn from scratch by an upholstery shop.

I had my seats redone in 2012 after years of searching for the correct upholstery using PUI and they turned out fabulous. As stated above PUI has the seat covers needed for 1967 post 442's. PUI only sells thru dealers so I had my interior shop purchase the product.
There website is http://www.puiinteriors.com/
The PUI part numbers for my black covers are
Front Buckets: 67CS10US
Rears: 67CS10SS

Hope this helps. Good luck.
