1963 Seat Covers and installation

[Kenneth H.]

Hello everyone, I have started looking for new red vinyl seat covers for my '63 but I've reached a point of not knowing who to turn to for new seat covers, because it seems every company has them. Could someone steer me in the right direction to by the correct seat covers and to have them installed? Are all the seats covers that are carried by the different companies made by the same people? Is one more correct for NCRS judging? Thanks

If you Google Al Knock his web site should come up. You can check out his web site he sells all of the interior components for most Corvettes and buy directly from him.

Also, some people buy Corvette America, which is a long time NCRS advertiser.

Great customer service.
I have used the "others" and they were not even close to the same quality.
When I used the competitor's door panels I could not even get all the panel screws into the door they were miss matched so badly.
My door panels even came with swaths of matching material to recover the door pulls.
It wasn't even mentioned it the sales catalog.

Hello everyone,

Has anyone used "Original Seats", in Texas I believe, for their seat services.

http://originalseats.com/

They may be called "Corvette Original Seats"

Re: 1963 Seat Covers and installation

It is my understanding "Original Seats" specialize in complete seats, typically for a restro rod.
As they reproduce the seat frames, tracks and springs.
Might be a option if one didn't have any seat or frames at all.

As an example;
1963 Corvette Seat Set in Vinyl
Cost is $3695.00
They do some interesting stuff like install headrests in 63 seats.
