Upholstery

Post by Mr & Mrs Cox »

'Could anyone tell me how many square yards of fabric/leather are required to upholster the two front seats + backs, the bench rearseat + back, the arm rests and the two door panels.

The service manual says 11 yds of 54" wide.This, I presume incudes the side walls as well for which I intend to use something different.

Thanks for your help
