Jan... A little bit of customisation on those... The late single squab SV/IA seats..but you added some contrasting piping ... Nice little sly modificationI finished upholstering the 1967 Sunbeam Alpine bucket seats this morning. The owner Brian Shults (TippCity OH) will be here for a pickup this evening.

Have you let them know the issue?These seats were missing all of the factory, seat diaphragm hooks and were replaced with Sunbeam Specialties (SS) parts. However, the length of the hooks are too long. Luckily, there's enough material to cut & re-bend them:

FYI, The longer hooks are same as the ones supplied to me by Martha Christiansen last year with my seat upholstery and diaphragms. She advised me that she does use the longer ones! I elected to use my original shorter ones as they were still in good shape and also on the advice of one of our fellow members. I do believe, it was jumpinjan that advised me!!!!!!!!!These seats were missing all of the factory, seat diaphragm hooks and were replaced with Sunbeam Specialties (SS) parts.
