Last winter I did find a website with the correct upholstery for me town&country '72, now I can't find nothing anymore. If you now where to find it please tell me!!!!!!
Give this place a shot...they are wonderful! SMS Auto Fabrics. Click on this link and go to pages 11 & 12. http://www.smsautofabrics.com/results.php?make=Chrysler/Imperial&year=1972&qu[]=C&qu[]=V&rpp=12 Hope this helps, David
That's the place I have heard of. I hope to use them for mine, once I know how many yards I need, and have a guy to make the patterns, and most of all the $ to do it. Anyone know of a good, REASONABLE upholstry shop in NJ or nearby let me know. I have had a guy quote me $4500 to redo both of my seats, must be a complete rebuild!! I am looking to spend under $1000, hopefully including material. Correct me if I am dreaming. MPJ
Why not try a community or trade school? They could use the experience and might like the publicity at car shows. You could also take a few evening classes running an industrial sewing machine, and then rent one for a week or two.
There's an Auto upholstery DIY at the bottom of this page: http://www.upholster.com/howto/ And check out the tools section too. The thing to this is carefully taking your upholstery apart. Use the camera, and label each piece and map them on a pad. The machines are intimidating for a newbie, for about an hour - lots of power. Once you get the feel for the pedal and shmoozing the needle pressure foot on the turns, you're on your way.
