I want to dabble in upholstery too, just havent figured out what i want to do in the fargo cab.
Dart needs seat covers. I think the rear seat will be ok, its been folded down since it was parked. Still havent looked at back seat though.
Have the new carpet for barracuda,new headliner for it as well. Think i can save the door panels.

I'm on it now because I could never get a call back from the " Upholstery Guys. But I cant wait, So I did the Vinyl Top and headliner, AND the seats. F'em. If they dont want to work, then , I'll figure it out........

Atta boy Mitch! F’m
I was the same way with the glass shops here in town. After a week of no call backs or interest I did the front and rear glass myself. (With help from my son) Definitely a two person job.

Took three to do front glass in Fargo. Two piece windshields are not that easy to install.
 
I tried doing some upholstery years ago, very hard on the hands and fingers, doubt I would be able to do it myself now, too much arthritis in my hands.
 
Evening all.
Underway to jobsite. Trying to get on location and preload started before the cold front hits Sunday evening. If it gets here early it is going to be a pain getting the boat on location.
 
Calling a couple of old friends on the phone tonight. Blaine in Fla. didn't answer. I might not have his correct number since he moved from the west coast. I looked up Dave in Ireland and it is 1:23 am there. Nope, ain't calling Dave. LOL
I think I will call Doug across town. LOL
