A good upholstery shop should be able to replace the torn leather pieces, while keeping the good original pieces. Some really good information about leather seats is available on our club website at http://www.imperialclub.com/Repair/Interior/Leather/. I have also used the Leatherique products that Kerry describes on this page, and would recommend them (http://www.leatherique.com/). And the Leatherique will help improve the fragrance of the seats as well. > I live in kentucky 60 miles west from bowling green > and 74 miles north west from nashville TN. if anyone > has info contact me off the list . Are you anywhere near Clarksville, TN? We go through there all the time on the way to visit my wife's family in Indiana. > my car wont be ready for any trips this year, but im > planing on going to the chattanooga meet in may > 27-30 hope to see everyone there, Sure hope we see you there! I'll have my '71 Imperial there, so you can see how the Leatherique worked on the seats.
