Go to GAHH. the only thing one of our members incountered was that the seat covers had vinyl pipping instaed of true leather. I guess you can special order this ,but it may be something you would want to know.

Hello Bob,
I am also interested in putting new leather seats in my white 1970 Pagoda.
Could you please recommend good quality, close to original, manufacturer or supplier of the leather seats. I suppose, I'll need to change the horse-hair seat pads as well!!
Best

Bob

Hi,

Just read Bob Geco's post.  Is there anyone supplying leather seat covers with actual leather piping?
