55 Patrician front seat cover(s)

Posted by Craig Hendrickson On 2016/5/18 19:09:26

When my Panther project is done and I can drive it, I will be doing a "mini-restore" on my 55 Pat, probably early next year. Until then, the front seat is pretty well worn, so I'm looking for some decent, but inexpensive seat covers to temporarily install until I get to that point.

It looks like Grant #1226 would fit, but everyone (Summit, JCWhitney, APW, etc) seems to be out of them. One critical dimension is the width and the above fit up to 61" width. Obviously in today's world, this is a truck or SUV bench seat size. I am looking for "tan" color as it is reasonably close to my Pat interior color.

Another possible manufacturer is OxGord as those are available for really cheap from Walmart. But, I can't locate any dimensions and they don't look as good as the Grant.

The seat covers are a TEMPORARY fix for about a year.

Has anyone installed same? Any suggestions are appreciated.
