Hey guys see I told ya didn't take long for me to have another problem, I am getting ready to upholster my seats in my 29 tudor I have a kit from Lee Chatterton, a good kit, have all the panels and headliner done starting the seats my question is: my restorer books say to use burlap on the springs before putting down cotton. The hardware stores in my area just don't carry burlap anymore well I can't believe that!!! I haven't heard of it being sold for years, most guys in hardware stores nowadays don't know what it is... so what is the next best thing to use? any suggestions? Thanks in advance Robert DeBord.
