[Healeys] Upholstery questions!

[Randy Dickson]

Fellow Healeyoids,
I have a couple of questions regarding upholstery for my 63 BJ7. How many
yards of vinyl do I need to do the entire interior, dashboard, dash top,
door panels, foot boxes and fender well areas, etc?  The material comes 54
inches wide.  I was thinking that 4 yards should do it but I want to order
enough. My upholstery person in town says that she can get the material for
$19/yard which appears cheap to me.  Also, how thick do I want the foam for
the dash top?  I was thinking 1/4 inch but I don't know.  I assume that no
foam goes under the rest of the vinyl but it just glues down on top of the
pressboard or whatever you call it panels. Thanks!
