I just picked up another project I don't need, but was too good of a deal to pass up. It is a 1974 Custom Deluxe with the saddle brown houndstooth upholstery. Just doing a quick search of all my bookmarked vendors and I cannot find anyone that sells replacement houndstooth for that year. I did find some for later models; I don't know what or if there are any differences, but I'll likely just redo in straight vinyl if I cannot find a match. Anyone know of a supplier that carries the houndstooth in stock?

Can it be repaired instead of replaced?

No, the driver's side is complete gone. I'm surprised that it has lasted as long as it has, but it is a 2 owner truck.

Looking for a pre-made cover, or just the fabric? SMS Auto Fabric moat likely has the correct fabric.

Looking for the premade kit/covers. I currently have a 79C10 and 80K10 and and 85K10. I don't see any differences in their seat frames or designs, so I figure it must be in the pattern. This is a rebuild to a daily driver, nothing show quality, I am just trying to replace what came from the factory.
