Any tips on the best way to upholstery a seat?  My next project is to
replace the seat covers in my '66 Mustang, but I may also need to re-do my
truck seat at some point.  I'd sure appreciate any tips anyone can provide.

Seems like most people use the hog rings, but I did notice Antonio used some
other kind of fasteners.  What works best?  What's the best way to
start......go from front to back....do the front, then the back.....or sides
first?  What's the best way to stretch the material for a good fit when
putting on the hog rings? I'd sure like to do this only once and do it
right.  Thanks in advance for the help.
