Finely got my leather.

I have another mod for my Mustang. I picked up some next to mint leather. I put the leather on the head rest already. The leather is from a coupe, so I have to take the back seat to an upholsterer to have the skin modified to fit the convertible. I got a super deal on it, I only paid $150.00 USD for it all. More pictures to come after the upholsterer gets it all finished.

Price is great, and you've got a perfect colour match, in as-new condition. From the pics it's doesn't even look used. Score.

The guy I bought them from in the US had an 06 and took them off right after he bought it and put a black set on. He packed them up and put them away. Fast forward to 14, he sold his Mustang and last month he put them up for sale and I happened to come across them. He told me they were in great condition. I bought them and had him ship them to my friend's in North Carolina. My friend is already here in Canada and his wife came up last week bringing the leather with here. ( Free shipping to Canada EH. ) When it arrived and I seen it, I was blown away.

I sent him an email and here is an snippet of it.

Hello Brian

I received my leather yesterday. ( July 11/14 ) My jaw dropped, They are much better then I expected. Thanks again for such a great deal. Now to get them put on.

Doug

Glad you like them. I told you they had very few miles on them and I tried to keep them conditioned and cleaned. Enjoy the feel of leather.

Brian

It's a nice change...did mine a few years ago. By the time I got 'er done, I wished I had paid someone to do it. They turned out nice, but my poor hands were killin' me.

I took the seats out of the Mustang this morning and dropped them off at the upholsterer. He thinks he may have them done by tomorrow afternoon.
