Special two door hardtop upholstery

Postby PDR521 » Sat Apr 12, 2008 5:32 pm

Hi I am restoring a 58 Special two door and it does not have the seats upholstered in the original style so I am looking for photos and dimensions of an original so I can get mine done the way it came out of the factory.

I have ordered the original materials from SMS and they have supplied some detail but anything additional particularly dimensions would really help.

Regards
Peter

I don't have the dimensions, but I can scan the pics in my dealer catalog if you wish.

Thanks for the offer I would appreciate that.

I have a scan that SMS sent me but I have seen some photos of other cars and they are different. If you can send me what you have I can compare and decide how I want to do my car.

Thanks and regards

These are the only two pictures in my catalog - I doubt they will be of much help. They are from a four door, but the upholstery should be very close to that of a two door.
