4AD Upholstery Pleats

[ggvette]

I am now getting to the upholstery on my 1953 4 AD, and I was hoping someone could advise on the number and spacing
of the front and rear seats pleat lines and spacing.

Might as well get the new upholstery as close as I can to the original.

From the pics i have, there seems to be 6 pleat seams on the front seat cushions and seat backs.

Appreciate the help.

ask and you shall receive, I no longer have a 4AD but I do have pictures of the most original interior you could ever find. The reason I say that is the backseat WAS original, I had a factory NOS rear seat for the 4AD to match my front seats with. The wrapping even had the Singer part numbers, etc. and I opened it. I hated ripping up the rear seat but I wanted to match the material front to rear so I had to. The number pleats in the rear match the front along with the size of the pleats, etc.
