Went to repair shop,est.on the vette as it stands now is $1782.00 .Talked about repaint and they would do it for a extra $1400. This for any color,and due to fact that all body work will be done prior to painting.Decisions,Decisions.:lookinup: :excited:

Decisions... about the color? What color is it now?

 

[raidmagic]

Black Vettes look great but a color change would be cool. How about orange or electron blue? Keep us posted

The body man told me about seven to ten days ,this is on how fast he can get replacment parts from GM.I hope things go well.I want to road trip it out to cooperstown to the Baseball hall of Fame,why the weather is still real nice.Taken my son with me,he willhave a ball.I dont get to spend enought time with him,so this will be a real treat for both of us.My work holds me back on time.

no idea on the cloth seat covers maybe you could look into the Wet Oakley seat covers. They seem to get good reviews. Why so you want to lose the leather?

 

[kenney]

I want to look at them(cloth seats)I was told by chevy dealer that the 84,s had that avail,so i would like to take a look z at them.

 

[raidmagic]

I looked at an 86 before I bought mine that had cloth seats so they were available at least till then.

 

[kenney]

I will have to dig deeeeep into the bowels of the web to find a place that has a picture of them/or for sole that has them up for sale.i tried that wet oakley and all i got thru google was a place to get sun glasses,ops:cheers: :excited:

 

[raidmagic]

Rogerscorvettecenter.com has a 90 with cloth seats. If you ask he will probably e-mail you picks. If you go to his site look at C-4's for sale then go down about 3/4 of the way you'll see it.
Good luck.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: STORMY SUNDAY BLUES UPDATE

I had an 86 with cloth seats, so they should be available somewhere. Try a local upholstery shop, sometimes you can find good deals.
