I have been looking into the cost.  I just received my catalog from Hampton
Coach today.  See the prior postings for phone number and web site info.
They have a LOT of cool stuff in the catalog not just seat covers and
headliners.

The kit includes everything needed to reupholster - stitch seat covers,
cotton felt padding , insulating foam pads, burlap, hog rings and pliers
along with instructions.  For a 46 it cost $148.00.  They have the front
rubber mat for $60.00 (this is about $20 less than anywhere else).  The
headliner cost $128 (this seems high but I have not priced it out) and it
includes matching Cowls - I think - need to verify prior to ordering.  The
headliner sample looks great - it is bade from Black Seal Grain ABS plastic.
They guarantee that the materials will be a color match, if you order all of
the items at one time.

They will recover the sun visor for $45.00 each - I do not have this option
in my truck.

>From the catalog pricing for a 47 - 54 p/u is $135 and for a Panel $160.00

Good luck,

Now a question - what is the correct color for a 46 is it a dark brown or
black?

All,
What is the going rate for material and labor to redo an 1950 AD seat bottom
and
back?
I have the Chevy Duty vinyl cover and have repaired and painted the springs.
I
got a local estimate to cut / add padding and install the cover for $150.00.
This seems a bit high,...What are your experiences?
