Seat Foam
« on: November 12, 2016 - 11:49:22 AM »
Where can I buy seat foam for my 73 Challenger? Year One and Classic Industries carry the foam for 70-72, but not the 73-74.  Thanks.

To my knowledge, nobody makes seat foams for 72-74 E Bodies, you have to look for decent originals.

I thought 72-74 seat foams are molded into the wire frame and, so not able to replace. I did think legendary sold some foam to patch it in though.

Legendary has a video covering upholstering a '73 bucket seat.  They mention the issue with the foam kit and cover adding some foam to a (still complete) original foam seat before installing the covers.  That won't help if chunks are missing but may be worth a look regardless.
