13K original miles, but after 60 years the GM leather is basically petrified. This year it's time to put new Al Knoch seat covers on it to bring the seats up to the caliber of the rest of the original interior.

----I know you are saying "petrified" but I'd love to see closer pics as those covers don't look like they should be replaced,,,JMHO! Be a little more expensive, but maybe do another complete set of seats for this jewel , and save these museum pieces???.....Bill S

I fully agree. I have another complete set of 63 seat frames I am taking to Redi-Strip, powder-coating semi-gloss black, then will rebuild to replace these. Not tearing the originals apart!

Bill, it's nearly impossible to find small block coupes these days. Most have been converted to 435's or restomods. This is a nice one.

Not usually drawn to White cars, but I would take ANY of the cars in this post...:drool:

----Tim,,,I'm thinking that you would remember that 67 I said I used to own. You were at BG as we talked a couple of times. The car was very nice, but had a few things to straighten out as it was his 1st time showing it anywhere.....Bill S

It looks slippery out. I'd be afraid it would slide and mess up the driver's side.

I usually loathe white cars, but I really like the black stripe on the stinger hood on white.

Since we are talking about white cars. Here is my 67 L79 that I have owned for 30 years. I restored it in 2007 earned National Top Flight.
I have not seen another 67 white/blue/white/white. I am sure they are out there just have not seen one. I did see a BB coupe in this scheme.

Bill,
When I read post #7 I thought the same thing …… no, don’t do that!
Original leather seats that look good enough to me.

I love how you think.

Sounds like they will be preserved after all …. on the shelf.
