Seat cushions

Post by T Ross »

Hi all,

I have been working on new seats for my 1963 Cruisers Inc. Anybody have a recommendation for an upholsterer in the Minneapolis area? How about a source for period vinyl?

Thank You

Tom

Hey Tom- Thought I recognized that Cruisers.
I defy anyone to show me better upholstery job than what was done on my T&T by Eugene Standaert of Cumberland, WI. He's not basically a boat upholstery guy. He was a professional classic car upholstery guy but has taken on a few boats. As my contact source told me; "Consider yourself lucky if takes your job". Craftsmanship and detail is stunning. Price is fair. No he's not in Minneapolis but a lot closer to you than he was to me. Good luck and that Cruisers deserves a great job!

A & T Auto Upholstery in Brooklyn Park - near the Crystal Airport. They did back-to-back fold down seats for one of my boats. Very quick and nice job and good price. They do lots of classic auto upholstery.

Thank You Dan & Andreas for your suggestions! I need to get the upholstery part going. Nothing makes spring come sooner than you like, than an unfinished winter boat project.
