Upholstery tuesday
Well it was a rainy crappy day so I needed to do something. My 62 lark convertible upper door and rear sail piece around the top well have dried out and has gotten very brittle so I decided to redo them.

Re: Upholstery tuesday
The old foam was shot as you can see on the other sail piece . Replaced it and covered with new marine vinyl.that is much more uv resistant.

Re: Upholstery tuesday
Door panel upper I did this spring. The door panels on these are two piece. Went crazy trying to find 1/8 Inch foam . Came across headliner foam with the cloth lining at Joann fabrics getting the vinyl. Works great .

Re: Upholstery tuesday
Should be Upholstery 'uesday! :p
I had a '61 Lark VIII convertible way back in the dim and misty past- 1970. It was already hard to get parts for, so I traded it in on a '64 Malibu SS at the dealer where I worked.

Re: Upholstery tuesday
Does that first pic look like a catfish to anyone else at first glance? I swear.
