A little advice? 1967 black. No headrests. Has anyone used new old stock leather seat covers? Thinking of using them Would I be better off buying a new set. Not sure if the new ones would fit better, be more pliable?

I've never used them, but I have bought used OEM vinyl covers and installed on one of my seats. Fit and appearance is wonderful.. I would use NOS leather covers in a heartbeat if I could find them, just so long as they have all the appearance of being just like brand new, not stiff, brittle and shrunken. Good luck
