I know that some companys sell seat material that is pre made and it needs to be pulled over seat spring and stuffing and put in place with hog rings dose anyone sell this for a 29 626 sedan that's correct for the car? thanks for any help Tom

Regretfully, I am unaware that anyone is doing such kits for 1929 Packards. If you have any remaining original seat upholstery fabric you may be able to find similar material at Bill Hirsch Autoor at LeBaron Bonney or at SMS Auto Fabrics but unless you are skilled at doing that type of work you will probably want to get it done by a local automobile upholstery shop that does automobile restoration work if you want to get it done right. Ask any friends with old cars in your area if they know of a good local shop.

ok thanks I keep hopeing something on these cars would be easy.. Tom

I have a 1929 626 sedan model 333 with all original interior (english broadcloth). It still has all door pockets, etc. I would be willing to post pictures of these details with dimensions for you. Let me know.

if you could that would help. The sedan of mine was in a barn for 50 years. thanks Tom

here are some photos of a nicely restored 28 six sedan that might be of help to you. This car was at the LA Packards International Show last month. If you would like denser files, you can pm me.

Dave - if you know - is that seat fabric a match or near-match for the original material? Just curious, as it's so totally different from the pattern that a 726 used.

OD, no idea. I found this car at the LA Packard International show last month. Don't know the owner - Big Kev might know. As a side question, was the dash on a 28 six coupe wood grained? A friend of mine here in MT is working on his.

nice thanks Tom

More photos of my 1929 626 model 333. Both seats have the stripped tulip shape. All side panels are solid color. The pleat width is exactly 6". Hope this gets you a little closer.

ps The front drivers door has no pocket. Rear doors are a mirror image.
