Wow! Thats a fantastic job!! :beer: :beer:

But I do suspect that you will struggle to find any og fronts to match in that condition and colour that are not split or stained.

Thanks mrsherbie:d

I was thinking that, but those back seats were so awfully dirty and stained when I first saw them...I'm keeping fingers crossed that soda crystals can fix any seats...even ripped ones lol:d

Hi Rach66
Would these be of any use to you. You could always re-sell what you don't need!

You would at least be one front seat (and a back) nearer to your goal

Could someone tell me what year these seats are from? I'm thinking they look the next design on after '66, but that's a novice guess.

The ad says pre 70.

Hi Mario,:d

Where did you get those done, as they have the basketweave middle panel. I think I am going to have to have the front covers made as I can't find any original front seats anywhere and I am fed up with just black front seats and everything else being white:(

I'll keep looking though, there HAS to be a pair of original front seats out there...somewhere!

P.S Your Beetle looks lovely!
