    66 leather seat covers and foam

    Any suggestions on the best foam and leather seat covers for my '66 coupe?

    I installed vinyl seat covers and foam from Al Knoch on my 66 ten years ago now. Still looks great and judges well. Let the fabric warm in the sun for a half hour before trying to stretch it over the foam. The heat softens the material and makes it easy to stretch. If not, you'll swear the foam is too big, the covers too small, or both! Tim

      You have two choices of companies that manufacture covers that closely resemble original: Al Knoch or Corvette America. Both are of good quality with Al Knoch slightly edging CA for an original appearance. I've always used CA, couldn't justify AK pricing.

        I agree with Mike as I have had very good service with my CA covers and foam. I saved 20% buying them through Wilcox.
