I'm located in Palatine, IL and need my Convertable top, door panels, and headliner repaired. I have tried some places locally in the area like Kens Kustom Korner (Schaumburg), Auto Upholstery (Palatine). They price here is very high. I could have had all the work done for $1260 in Georgia, but I had too hurry up and move to thake the job in this area. Now Kens want $1250 just for the top using the same material and design. Now Auto Upholstery wants $1500 just for the top. I thinking about hooking my car up to the trailer and pulling it up to Rockford, IL, since the cost of living is a lot cheaper than this area. Anyone have a suggestion on a place that will not have such a outragious price?
Thanks

I'm in MN and had an upholstery shop in town that now appears to be gone. I also have a Firebird Convertible that needs a top...no headliner that I am aware of but online, you can pick up a Stayfast top for $400 and install I hear SHOULD be around $200 labor. The estimate in summer was about $650 here and $550 in the winter...save a hundred bucks during slow months... Not bad and I should have done it of course... Anyway, I think I'll upgrade my seats with 4th gen ones, or 1990s ones. Try eBay for door panels, they are frequently offered.

My neighbor had work done at this place on his 68 riviera.
It is very nice work, not sure on their pricing though.
