Hi, John:
SMS (or $M$) supplied the seat vinyl for my convertible directly to me and the entire interior for my 300E to Gary Goers to turn into seats, etc. Both sets of vinyl and leather were exact matches. With SMS, patience will be a virtue. Please advise if you like their contact information.
Best,
Ron Kurtz

After 61 years, the leather in our
1957 300C front seat needs new stitching, new foam and the
springs need to be repaired. We had hoped to keep our 300 as
original as possible, but the seats need to
be repaired before the stitching gives up. We took the 300C to the National
WPC Meet in Tacoma last August 2017 and was awarded the
President’s Cup for the Best original car. We
always wondered if we should replace the
leather seats in both the front and back. Our local car club
friends said to leave it all original.Since Gary Goers is no longer able
to do the leather seats, we went to our local upholstery
shop and asked them about sowing up the front
seat, adding new foam and fixing the springs. They said the
leather is too hard and brittle and almost impossible to
stitch. They suggested we replace the leather. I guess it is
about time to do that. I asked the Beaverton Auto
Upholstery owner to call Legendary as we wanted a leather
that matched the original Beige leather.
“Rich” at Legendary sent a
sample to Beaverton Auto Upholstery and said the cost is
about $3,000.00 for both seats. Legendary said it would take
4 to 8 weeks to get them done. My concern is whether the color
and thickness of the leather from Legendary is comparable to
that used by Gary. Also, we plan to replace the
Black, loop-pile type carpet including the vinyl heel pad.
Beaverton Upholstery said the rest
of the interior is in excellent condition including the
Vinyl seat backs, door panels and head liner. Legendary supplied the front seat
upholstery for our1970 300 Convertible in December 2015
which we are very pleased with. We would like to drive our 300 to
the Spring Meet, May 14-18, at Rohnert Park in
California.. Do you have any thoughts or
suggestions? John & Arlys
