You might give Dan Tumia at Corvettes of Auburn a call. If his shop doesn't do it, he'll likely be able to point you in the right direction.

What exactly do you want done? Do you want a seat cover section replaced or do you want the entire seat cover replaced? If it is the latter I can help you. I did upholstery on collector cars for about 25 years and am now kind of retired. If you want new seat covers you and I could have a nice afternoon doing it together for very little money on your part, other than the cost of the new seat covers. I may also be able to buy them at a discount through my business. If you just need a section replaced I may be willing to do that but I would need to see the seat first and see what you wanted.

Based on what he's done for us at the museum I can speak for Keith's good work.

heya Keith,

I guess I am looking for a repair or resew of some seams and not having to replace any panels, matching the leather will prob be impossible, at least I'd think so, but I don't know what I'm looking at. Its the shale color of the Commemorative Edition. I would like to take you up on the offer to look at it. Pretty sure you'll be able to see what needs to be done. I will PM ya

this is what it looked like back when I bought her, don't have any pics of the areas needing repair but might try to take a couple this weekend and post.
