Re: Bench Seats, Having them Reupholstered

Went to Michigan Saturday, and picked up 4 core seats and a set of seat belts. Spent the last couple days getting them all stripped down, and started the rust removal process, mainly the hardware & tracks. Now I need a couple good days to get the frames sandblasted, repaired & repainted. They all need some springs repaired, as they always do. I have yet to have a seat that didn’t need something repaired. It’s why I do, what I do. There are so many issues hiding under that cover & foam. The frame & springs are the back bone of the seat. Sure, you can make the seat look pretty by throwing a new cover on it. But that’s like putting lipstick on a pig. The frame & springs need to be repaired, otherwise your just wasting your money.
