Verry nice! I dropped a bundle on leather rears, but your $500 not including materials puts it into perspective—upholstery is expen$ive. They look pretty cushy for vintage performance seats. Maybe Paddy had a sensitive bumm. 

Bolsters. Love 'em and hate 'em. They hold you in tight, but dang they make it hard for this old man to climb in & out.

I got my Paddy Hopkirk seats back from the trim shop this week, These are the ones Smurf kindly donated to the cause. I had them done in leather that I had in stock from an MGB restoration I finished years ago, The seat backs were done in vinyl because there wasn't enough leather to do a big panel. So the materials were supplied and I only had to pay the labour for stitching them up and fitting.I think they turned out great and will look the part in the 1960. Cost was $500 for the job at Franzini Bros. in San Rafael.
