salans7 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 SMS Auto Fabrics should have the exact match, but If I recall correctly, they aren't cheap for obvious reasons. They sent me samples for my old truck a few years ago, and the samples matched the original seat perfectly. https://smsautofabrics.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArdWrknTrk Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Matthew (Dorsai) just had his bench recovered in original fabric. I know he mentioned the source, but I don't have time to look it up.

salans7 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 According to the website they only carry up to 1980 . I find that strange, but I'm not sure the materials changed between 1980-1984 so it may still be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pics are terrible so you need the samples. I ordered three that I thought would be closest to my 81 fabric but none were a match. But I think there were multiplied fabrics so maybe you’ll be luckier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although expensive, it is the real thing and it looks absolutely fantastic in my truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever i access the site the "year" drop-down box ends at 1980 :( On their website, you will see a tab at the top that reads CONTACT. Click on that, and fill out the form. Request fabric and/or vinyl samples for your truck, making sure to include your year truck, trim level, interior code, and color. Pictures can be attached. Don't forget to include your mailing address. They will send you fabric and/or vinyl samples that were available for your exact application (or whatever application you specify) within about a week.
