[Shotimes] Brand New Leather Seats Group Buy!!

[Adam J. Green]

Yes... full leather fronts, mostly leather backs... the inserts are leather
with vynl edging... for another 100 bucks, the back seat will be 100 percent
leather... the shops around here (Harrisburg, PA) want anywhere from 1100 to
1500 to do it... stiching and recovering....  www.leatherseats.com
"Guarantees" that the seats will be factory and stiched correctly. It might
be a pain in the but to re-do our seats ourselves... but what haven't we
done to our SHO's that wasn't a PITA and that we've appreciated greatly
after it was done? I rest my case...

          -Let Ged der done--
