Does anyone know where I can get repro or custom seat covers for pintos? I cant seem to find any avocado green covers with the tweed inserts.
After extensive searching, I found none. I then started looking for the cloth and that took a while but I was successfull. Your best bet is to find the meterial and have a local shop make them. We used "Guy's" in Hartford for ours. They can help you locate the metrial too.

I was pretty sure thats what it was going to come down to. How much did it cost to have covers made?
I DON'T KNOW WHERE LOCATED, BUT I HAVE A SET OF
AVOCATO SEATS (FRONTS ONLY) OUT OF A 73 THAT I
PARTED OUT WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW. I ALSO HAVE
THE FACTORY HEAVY SHAG CARPET, FRONT AND BACK
FROM THE SAME HATCHBACK CAR. IT IS NOT FADED AT
ALL, AND CLEANED UP WOULD BE AS NEW. REALLY!!!!!
IF YOU OR ANYONE ELSE ON THIS SIGHT ARE INTERESTED
I WOULD LIKE TO UNLOAD THIS STUFF. I HAVE BEEN SAVING
THIS STUFF FOR 35 YEARS, AND I THINK IT'S BEEN LONG
ENOUGH. I'M FROM GRAND RAPIDS MI. I'M OPEN TO ALL
OFFERS, SO DON'T BE AFRAID TO RESPOND OR E-MAIL
OR PM ME.

The labor was $200. per seat for the fronts (low-backs with the headrests) and we supplied the material. The fancy NOS cloths seem to start at about $75. per linear yard.
