Very nice - very very nice!  If I could only find someone like that around here. 

Got the bar bench recovered and the dash recovered.  But she would not touch the cockpit seats.  Said it was to complicated for her, and I know she has done bench seats in custom pickups.  Guess I was lucky to get her to do what she did.

Total cost was $750.00 seats and carpet, However he did mention that he underestimated the time and effort involved in the seats so he may go up from the $300.00 per seat he charged. I think he will still be reasonable. He has priced doing my dinette bench seats for $250.00 and I am also going to have him do the window valancies in same colors. He priced all the valancies recovered for between $ 150.00 and $200.00. I hope to wake my old 280 up this summer, we will see how it goes, Thanks again for the nice comments.

Howdy Dub, 
    Looks Great!!!  A very nice job, and reasonably (I think) priced.  Would you please post name and number of the shop?

Now I'm beginning to think the guy at Infinity (Nac.) charging $700 labor + materials for the front seats is too high... ???
 
I'll have to start dickering a bit if I want to do that job this year...

Was the material Ultra Leather? Did they replace both the foam and batting material or just recover the old cushioning?
