After over two years and two upholstery shops I finally have the new seats for the ’66. The buckets and console come from a Studebaker GT Hawk and the back seat is the original frame. I had the work done by the 2nd upholster Jody Noble and he got it out sooner than he estimated. He did a nice job of the light teal vinyl with darker teal cloth inserts and he used the original dark teal vinyl from the old seats to make up the piping and the top of the console. That helped to match up with the original dark teal vinyl on the doors, dash, etc. Happy day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
