Tartan Seat covers

[ccga3359]

Dude when I mentioned it I was reminiscing about my '74 Volkswagen.

A few years back I acquired a couple yards of Burberry Nova Check, camel color, in cotton upholstery weight. Then I bought a pair of cheap seat covers, took them apart, and used the center fabric as the pattern to cut out the Burberry and sew it back into the elastic material to make my own custom covers. It's really not difficult on a regular home sewing machine. No pictures, but I think a daughter still has them, somewhere...

I found one here not sure if they would fit your new truck.

Yea, I saw those - but UGLY!

Right - but nothing for a pick-em-up truck....... at least I haven't found any.

Orvis has carried these for a while, they don't look too bad but that only have the two tartan variations.

Cover it or have it covered. A guy on s10forum has a body dropped s-10 that he covered the interior in some kind of plaid. Guess I'll have to break down and get me a digi camo kilt so I can match the interior of my blazer.

I found a pretty nice set of covers on line, that has a different inset in the center section. I think I'll look for some JoAnns tartan and then I'm going to see if my tailor, or an upolstery shop might be interested and or capable to put that on the center.
