Looks like a big comfy couch! I like it!

What's ballpark cost on getting a seat like that upholstered down there?

My seat in my Chevy is looks like that and I did it in a vinyl that looks like old leather. It was $1500. That one is real leather and it was 3k!!
More than I would spend, but the owners choice!!

Glad to hear upholstery isn't only crazy for us in Canada! One day I'll get the seat in my 46 done, not yet though.

Got the vintage Air working last night. Need to cut and crimp 2 lines and charge it!!
The owner wanted to use fat fender garages under dash valance. So I spent time cutting in all the vents the controls and then a spot for the holley dash. Also install some 56 emblems
