You might contact ciadella interiors in arizona. They specialize in tri5, and impala covers and interiors- They may have some of the materials or contacts to GET the materials to do your seats.

Otherwise you will likely need to find a custom upholstery shop and have them do some searching for matching materials.

You do what you want with your car, but man, these seats look just fine to me. I bet there is a way to get rid of the discoloration without redoing the whole thing.

Waterless hand cleaner (Goop) works good for removing stains from vinyl .

I have to agree, the seats look pretty darn good for being a mere 59 years young!

That said the go to place for original seat fabric is ==> SMS Fabrics They are a royal pain to work with, but they usually have the goods.

It would be a crime against humanity, or at least the old car hobby, to rip out those seat covers because of that minor amount of dirt on them. They can most likely be cleaned up pretty nicely, and no matter how good the replacement seat covers are, they'll never be as nice as the originals. And those originals look fantastic, even if they never ended up any cleaner than they are now.

If the foam is still good under the covers and the seats are firm try dawn dishwashing liquid, and a soft bristle brush with warm/hot water.
