Default Re: Any good matches for original seat vinyl?
I read through your query about upholstery, and as far as I know SMS in Oregon may be the only place to get original (cloth) factory patterns for just about any make/model/year. The vinyl material is reproduced by SMS.
I make the suggestion to get the cloth material along with the vinyl as it is so much more comfortable and breathes well- vinyl is hot-hot-hot and sweating is a problem, at least in a less temperate climate like Phoenix where I live. May not be an issue for you at all.
SMS will send you samples of both fabric and vinyl for your 65 GMC if you request it.
