Bill R: Seats on your old 635...

[Robin-535im]

I remember you posting about the refinish work a long time ago... maybe on the old board, or on a web page somewhere.

How has that held up? Do the refinished seats wear as well / better / worse than the original setup?

The photos of the redone seats are just so purty...

about 2 years after the seats were done. They held up well but not nearly as well as the original finish does. You always have to be careful with the refinished ones. He was fairly careful and they still looked ok when the car was sold on Ebay about 2 years ago. Somebody in Colorado with an m6 bought it. He wanted the rust free body, frame and components to use his m6 drivetrain and interior on. I think they got 3500 for it on ebay. It had around 350k miles on it when it was sold. I paid 1500 for it when i bought it originally with around 220k miles on it.
