Stephen,
Replacing the foams is a job you can do yourself and do well. If you are not
sure how to proceed, Victoria British has, on occasion, put an insert into
their catalog which gives an excellent detailed full color illustrated
instructions on doing just this job - get in touch with them and see if they
can send you a copy. BTW, you will be needing a general purpose upholster
adhesive - 3M makes the best IMHO.
Hope this helps.
Dr. Doug

Subject: Seat foam question
I am planning on fitting new seat foams to my 69 roadster, and I was wondering
on the difficulty on this. The outer leather is in very good condition, but
the innards have worn out, making for an uncomfortable ride. Is this a simple
remove the seat, remove the leather, replace the foam, refit the leather,refit
the seat to the car job or is there a lot more to this than meets the eye? I
am hoping to do this job myself but may go to a pro if there is a chance I may
ruin the leather or something. Any tips would be extremely helpful!
Thanks in advance!
