I've got a 72 Nova with blue interior with bench seats. The driver's side of the front is shot and it needs spring/padding work as well. A local shop quoted me $700 to rebuild/recover the front and back seats close to original. If I could find good factory style covers and padding I'd try to do it myself.
What do you guys think it should cost for me to get mine redone? I was thinking about possibly switching aftermarket to buckets but that would only be temporary. I'd rather just do it right and do it once.
Thats A Good Price. I Bought A Complete Set Of Covers From Classic Industries For 259.00 Front And Back. Had A Local Shop Cover Them For 250.00. No Spring Or Padding Added. I Would Jump On Your Quote If You Trust The Quality Of Their Work.
They do have a good reputation and it would be a custom job that would be close to the factory materials and pattern. Maybe I'll get him to do it. Thanks for the reply...
Thanks Only thing I could thank of to put there. I was going to copy someones pin strip. But at the time I could not find anyone that could do it. I am happy with it.
He did the roll bar to. The arm rest and cranks are from a street rod shop. You can get them any were. I even put power windows on it. I had everything out it was a good time to do it.
I would gladly pay $1,800 for someone to make mine look like that!!!
My interior is blue, I need a dash pad, carpet and sound proofing, door handles, headliner, dash repainted, package tray and the front/back benches redone. Most of it I can do myself but the seats need professional help...besides, I can't find anyone that makes the right seat cover for it.
Classic Industries has the seat covers if you wanna do them yourself. I had Autocraft Upholstery Co. in Morrow, GA do my seats, door panels & visors. I am happy with the results as well as their price.

I can't pull up your pics from my phone but I'll look at them tonight. Would you mind sharing what you paid for the work? If not here maybe a PM? I'm just trying to get an idea.
There use to be lady in Griffin that was real good. I use to live there. If I can find her name I will post it for you. Thanks for the good word on mine still working on it. Got to get the air working and a few other little things and all will be good.
I took all the ac parts out of mine during the engine swap. I still have it all but I'm hesitant to put it back in because of the under the hood space that it costs me. It used to take me an hour and a half to change plugs because of the two back right plugs...
