Butterscotch seat question

[MidLifeCrisiz]

My '71 is badly in nead of some new upholstery. the original seats are a vinyl two-tone color butterscotch, dark center (ginger looking) and butterscotch sides and back. I would like to stay with this. I have see a few places advertising this combo but after inquiry for purchase they tell me they are out and won't get anymore material.

Does anyone know where I can still get the two-tone combo? if not, does anyone have a picture of the one color butterscotch or the vinyl fabric center combo in vinyl.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Seats are out of the car and I want to drive.

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply. I sent them an email with the question. Nothing on their web site addressed seat upholstery so I hadn't tried them.

Big Oak,

thanks for the note, but all I need is the seats. My doors are excellent.

Sorry we can't help each other out on this.

Thanks, but unfortunately they no longer have Butterscotch even though it shows on site.

I've tried and have "no's" from -

I have inquiries into -

Maybe one of them will come through for me.

Anyone have a photo of a vinyl reupholstered butterscotch seat with solid color throughout? That might be my only option.

doesnt matter, you already tried them.

I took my seats to a lady in town that restores and re-covers household furniture, she was more than happy to do it. Auto type shop was more expensive. Had thousands of samples, color, material, leather, cloth, plastic, vinyl, etc. I wanted cloth and more padding in the sides and headrest. She took old set apart using them as patterns and I had new custom seats in less than a week for $200 each. Just an idea for you to get what YOU want.

26th-Z,

Thanks for putting me onto Datsun Spirit. Even though they don't list seat kits on their site they can get them. I have placed an order $220 incl. shipping for a L & R. Eiji Hosomi states that he can get the two-tone butterscotch seat vinyl look that will keep me like original!

I'll drop an update in 2-4 wks when they show up. One less crisiZ to deal with in the refurb process.

Thanks again for everyone's responses. This site is awesome!

No pics huh?
