I had them recover a motorcycle seat a few years ago. Nice guys, nice work, fair price. -

Do they also do vinyl tops? Mine is shot. I'm out in Suffolk county but the quotes I've gotten have been by far in the ridiculous price range... (I think AutoMat in Hicksville wanted close to 2 grand...)

Slack,
I will say this as to costs for a top.......I will have my top changed on the 86 GM Tudor....total price $800.00, if you were quoted 2K....I have to say they attempted to rip you a new one!Originally posted by slack View PostComment

2 grand is far too much. I was quoted $1000 to replace the full carriage roof on my car, and those are typically more labor-intensive than vinyl tops. Is yours a full vinyl roof or half? For the half roofs, I heard that re-doing the metal band around the b-pillar costs several hundred dollars alone.

Completely agree. I was floored when I was quoted that. I figured I was possibly better off trying to do a slick top conversion instead.
The car has a half vinyl top. I gave the guys a call and they do replace Vinyl top. I have to send them some pics of my top before they'll give a rough estimate. I'll report back with what they quote.

Looks like it's about $650 for all said and done. He said it would take a few days to get the vinyl and then a day to install it.

The leather seats in mine are really good, I want to get some of the natural grain creases looked at. They still there in Franklin Square?
About 10+ years ago, I used Blue Coral Saddle conditioner (tan colored aromatic) which sold for $9 a bottle. Then Blue Coral stopped making the consumer product. I found a distributor who sold me a gallon of the "pro" blue stuff and that lasted a while. That was the best stuff for the leather.sigpic
