I ruined the OEM seat fabric on my 1965 Fury III by sitting in it when my pants were dirty from working in the garage.
After nearly $2000 to the upholsterer for covering it with completely new fabric, I want to prevent the previous mistake. Upholstery always wears first and worst in the driver's seat. How do I protect the new fabric on the driver's side?
I saw a guy with a 1959 Ford Retractable that had gorgeous OEM seats encapsulated in that uncomfortable plastic you used to see. Upholsterers around here say they don't do that anymore.
None of the aftermarket vendors I have seen do slip-on seatcovers for our old-style bench seats.
In my childhood my father put some sort of woven mesh seat to sit on over the OEM seat fabric. Guess I could drape the driver's side with a beach towel or something, but it sure would not be very elegant.
I plan to restore this car to show quality. It will not be a daily driver, but I do want to take it on trips.
