Interior Repair.....matching patterns and colors....
I have an 84 Z 28.
I have a black and blue interior. The side supports on the seats are blue and black striped as are the door panels.
I was told that 84 was the last year that these colors were offered. I'm not sure about the pattern but assumed that it was.
My question is this: How difficult is it to locate material to repair a tear on the drivers seat?
It's not actually a tear, it wore thin from years of behinds being rubbed against it when people get in or out. It's a common wear spot on all cars, about half way up the seat towards the outside of the car.
I'm not totally convinced of keeping the original pattern. I really like the colors but I'm not sure I want to go through all of the work and money to keep the original. I could very easily hear black leather seats calling!

These guys will mail you a sample overnight. I will vouch for the materials as I have used them in the past.
