    Anyone have any info or leads or possibly any vintage seat covers for 46-48 ford Tudor? Or am I better off buying the material I like and making/having some made? AD97F86D-3425-445F-8552-A2EE41C7D27A.jpeg

    I'm retrimming my 46 Olds with OEM trim that I got from Le Baron Bonney before it folded. I also came across some NOS generic plaid covers on E-Bay. They seem to turn up there every now and again.

    Thanks. Been keeping a eye out. Just thought a few feelers would help the search. Post up some photos of yours if you don’t mind!

    Car parts are still with trimmer and covers are packed away as I'm about to travel, rent house out and downsize.

    I seem to recall someone here on the board had acquired a whole bunch of old stock seat covers for various model cars a few years back, and was reselling them - you may be able to find something with a search.

    I searched but didn’t find anything more then a couple years old. Maybe I’m over looking something? Will keep looking though. Thanks!

    Hey man I will get with him and see. Been awhile since I’ve been on here much. Did you ever get that 34 ford parted together?

    Search vintage seat covers. Some on there now, changes daily.
     
  13. The originals were nylon and when I'd slide across them I could act as a condenser and shock the daylights outta my little sister! Not a fan.

  14. I have not gotten anything together yet unfortunately. Too many other projects! Still collecting though. That’s a good looking Tudor!

    thanks man. It been a fun car! I got out of the 34s shortly after selling you all those parts. But dad picked them up and is about finished with thus sedan. Going to be a killer car. 9BACD496-F007-4C2C-9830-B41C7AD748F9.jpeg

  16. Man that's nice! Love that color!
     
  17. I bought some for my kids 50 Ford a while back that I no longer need, but can’t think how much different they might be than 46-48 (guessing 49-51 seats were wider?). Pretty sure they were pretty generic. If interested, they are red and would be cheap.

    thanks man, it’s a custom mix that I came up with at work. Pretty slick color. Perfect for that car!

    Old Sled Works in PA bought out a warehouse a few years ago, and got dozens of boxes full of NOS vintage plaid seatcovers. He was blowing them out cheap. Probably gone by now, but you could contact him to be sure.
