Hi everyone, while I don't remember Jo Han Fabrics, someone did mention SMS Auto Fabrics

 

http://www.smsautofabrics.com/

 

which has rolls of NOS materials for all makes and models. Not cheap, for instance a slice of Pierre cardin AMX Javelin material to cover both front buckets, and rear bench in your 72-74 will set you back $1200, then you still would have to get them upholstered with possible springs and cushions so have $2K+ into seats easily but not big deal unless budget restrained.

 

Yes, the blue is different on 76-78, (to me) seems slightly darker than earlier years. To me, not a issue either one can have it dyed or bleached to match door panels. Davis mentioned Wal Mart for material, I mentioned hobby stores like Hobby Lobby or Michaels, which also has authentic Levis buttons, about $5 a box.

Eddie Stakes said the material (not from old Levi britches) is still available at Jo Ann Fabrics.  Eddie... correct me if I'm wrong. And remember '73-'75 blue is a different shade of blue than  '76 and newer.

Thanks, The rear seat and door panels are good but my front seats are trash and From the info that I am getting is the Levi material can only be gotten from old Levi britches at close to a million dollars a pair because they are the fashion now.

Thanks

IF interested, we still have a good rear seat from a 75 Levi Gremlin, also door panels.  The door panel material is still good, just the backing boards need re-doing.


Blessings,
