upholstery quote..tell me what you think!

I own a 1965 coronet with bench seats front and back. Since the car is all original I want to keep it as original as possible..I just got a quote to get my front seat and back seat reupholstered from a local shop. The shop has been around for quite some time so I know they have a good reputation. The quote was $800 to recover the seats in vinyl and fix the foam or $900 for vinyl with a cloth center piece.

Does this seem like a good deal?

Thanks for your input...

If you want it to look original buy Legendary Upholstery. Plus it will be cheaper.

he's talking installed with new foam. i think it's a little high but don't really know what quality you're getting.

That's not really that bad. I paid $400 to have this rear seat redone and that's with me supplying the NOS material which was an extra $160.00. They basicly had to make a new seat cover pattern out of the ripped up old one that was on it. I agree though if you can buy your seat covers at Legendary do it, it will save you money and it will probably look better.

I just had 2 A-100 seats, back seat done to match and the package tray. Keep in mind the A-100 seats were pretty far gone and he had to replace all the foam but the rear seat was really nice requiring only a cover.

I paid $1k out the door.

I sent my 70 Challenger Bucket Frames to Legendary. It was $850 for new foam and covers installed. They did nice work. I think your price is fair as long as the shop has a good reputation!

do it yourself,buy from dante,i never did upolstery before,did my own,saved huge,not hard,just give yourself plenty of time,lots of tips here on the board also

Installing the covers is so easy...I make my own covers.

I had a set of high back later e body 73 buckets since my car didnt have front seats when i got it and my original 70 b body back seat upholstered. The shop built new foam ( extremely comfortable now) and there own vinyl covers which he told me he could make one very close to oem looking if I preferred, price out the door was 650 dollars I thought that was more then fair. I'll post pictures when I get home.

I was charged $800 to recover my buckets, rear bench and headrests. That was with me supplying the covers (Legendary).
