Default Seat advice

I am the second owner of a 72 Vette (the original owner was a large guy who crushed the foam in the drivers seat). I live in So Cal (Southbay) and was wondering who you could recommend for repairing car seats.

Welcome from another 1972 C3 owner! Post some pictures when you get a chance, always love seeing more 1972's join the forum. As far as seat restoration goes, I don't know of any local shops for you. I do know that you can buy replacement foam and seat upholstery kits. Al Knoch is really a great brand.
