    Does Anyone Make (or have) '73 Seat Foam?
    « on: August 15, 2006 - 04:02:33 PM »
    Does anyone know of a source for '73 seat foam?  I've seen '70-71 but no '72-74.

    The upholstery shops just wrap the frames with foam that they cut to fit.  The down side is that you will likely have to pay them big$$$.  Last time I got a quote they wanted $500 Cdn to install covers on a set of buckets.

    A little late but no one makes 72-74 seat foam as of 11th of October 06.
    Kind of weird when they sell the covers and seat misc pieces.  :clueless:

    Not enough demand yet; but it will happen.  A good seat shop has extra foam; sometimes in shapes such as curves etc.  They can make the seat covers to fit correctly.  It is surprising.  I thought it was made.

    I'll take 'em Barry, that's the only part that's worn through on my seats.

    ... Just looked through my catalogs, are you talking the Barracuda leather seat foam or the 'Cuda vinyl seat foam?

    I had to have my local upholstery shop make mine for my 71 cuda as no one reproduces them for the standard cuda seat. :pullinghair:

    Not sure about this , but I took one 73 seat apart, seems the foam is molded into the framework, at least on the backs, maybe thats why you can't just buy the faom????
