    Hi All
    I may be on an impossible mission, but know theres a lot of guys with a great network around here - so I'll ask for your help.

    My '65 C10 (std. trim) needs a replacement of the seat cover. I'm restoring it to perfectly original condition, so I don't won't to use the new manufactured all-round seat covers.
    Im looking for an original standard 65 vinyl seat cover in decent or good condition.

    Is there anybody how have such one I can buy, or maybe you know somewhere I could look, or somebody to contact?

    I know this may be impossible, but really hope you can help - it would make my truck even nicer!

    Attached is a picture of the cover I'm looking for (see back of seat) - I need to replace both the seat and the back cover.

    Thanks in advance!!

    No one have an idea to where I may be lucky to find a original cover? - links for large junk yards?, used part suppliers etc.?

    The Deal Is :

    Not only you are looking for the proverbial " Hen's Teeth " but , you're looking here where the folks are not quick to respond .

    Keep beating those bushes ! .

    I see these fine old trucks in the local Junkyards all the time and I , personally notice things like original seat covers but Generous Motors Corporation was pretty cheap in those days and always bought the cheapest and shortest life seat upholstery , mufflers and shock absorbers as any old Dealer Mechanic will affirm .

    Best of luck with your search !

    Have you even tried the host here ? they carry nice original seat covers for my '69 ~ if I didn't prefer the cloth seats (I live in the Desert ya know) I'd have them in my truck now .

    Also LMC , Brothers , Eckler's , BowTie Bits and many others ~ someone is sure to have what you need out there .
