seat

My automotive saddler has stripped my toronado front bench seat to make a new seat cover.
The foamed material between the cushion springs and the vinyl cover is hard and inclined to crack.

Knows anyone a manufacturer who makes and sell foamed material for 1966-70 GM cars?

Re: WANTED: 66 Wonderbar am/fm

So then, I checked the radio. I put it on a 12V battery charger and connected to two 4 ohm speakers (I have not the right 8 ohm speakers) and an antenna.
