Okay, I have brand new seat covers, both front buckets and the rear bench. I also have a new seat bun set for the front buckets. My seats are original 70's with the worn and brittle original upholstery. What would you think is a reasonable price to have the seats done? I'm guess some new padding would be needed on the rear bench but the front buckets should just be a remove and replace operation. Thanks for your thoughts.

I bought a complete interior for my 72 Challenger from year one. The door panels came from a different source, like Sherman, but not sure. My seat foam was good and the center auto was in good condition. If you can find foam, just put the seat covers on yourself. Cut the new foam with a bread knife. Just copy the old seat foam. Turn the seat cover inside out and slip them on and hog tie them. Year one sent directions on the seat covers and on the head liner. Everything went fairly easy just took some time. I think the door panels and all the Year One stuff was around $1400 back in 2001. A local shop wanted $2000 to put the stuff I bought, in the car. For 2 G's I would try it myself. It wasn't all that hard.
