"Audri" 1963 VW 1500 Variant
Front Seat Upholstery
The original cloth interior was badly deteriorated on the front seats. Since the rear seat & interior panels were fine we decided to replace just the front seat cloth material.
Pedro was able to buy the new reproduction Salt & Pepper cloth from SMS in Oregon for his Variant so I was able to get just enough to redo my front seats. The material was cut in early-March 2018 and the trim shop took a few weeks to remove the original upholstery from the seats, add the new cloth, and sew it all back together.
