Why is there never a tray? The seats may be salvageable, but I don't thinks so. Any one here know how to do seat covers?

hog rings
You need a mini bolt cutter to cut the old hog rings off,
A washing machine to clean the the dirt out of the fabric,
a pair of hog ring pliers and some cheap hog rings
Did I forget to mention laundry detergent and a dryer? -
The seats sat in a barn for what looks like years. I have hog rings from the VW I was working on. Small tears and burns, lots of rust stains on one from the other sitting on it. I may try to make my own covers. I have a killer book thats lays the basic idea out for me. But I have to destroy the old covers to make templates. The rear split seat looks great, and all the hardware is good. I'm gonna try to wash em (not in a machine worried those old seams would explode).
Keep smiling every time I look at the pic. I love a goodies.Last edited by KingFish; 04-09-2009, 01:54 AM.Going old school...

Look for Freshtivas thread about how he cleaned his seats. When he was done they looked almost new.Search Master - Honorary Member of Midwest Festiva Inc., Gulf Coast Chapter
