The '53 AD I procured 2 wks. ago had a "butt sized" hole in the upholstry right in front of the steering wheel. I'm deciding how I should proceed with this and it's looking more like an off the frame, but there's a lot of summer left to do some cruizin',etc. so I was looking for an interim fix. I found it on Wal-Mart.com in a Bell bench seat cover for $10, which ships free to the store or for $1.97 they shipped it to my home! I can't drive the 12 miles one way to Wally-World for that, so I had it shipped. Arrived today and it's a decent fitting one pc. (that I slipped in place in about 2 minutes) Black nylon cover that slid right on. It's a moderately thick material that isn't too slick. It's a wee bit too long, but easily wraps around the body of the seat and can be tucked in on all sides. For now, I'm a happy camper, especially for the $11.54 total cost delivered to my home!

If the black color works for you it might be a worthwhile investment just to keep your upholstery perfect between meets??

Gee, It went up a $1.54! I'd still say it's a good deal for an interim fix or to keep somethin' really nice...nice if you have Man's best friend riding around with you. A dog and a pick-up kinda go together like (root) Beer and pretzels!
