reese Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I am getting a OEM style bench seat cover made for my 74 620 and need any pictures of OK condition stock seats so I can duplicate the original stitching. Did the stitching change over the years from 72-79? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
420n620 Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I know of a 74 620 with a xcellant seat and I have a 78 620 with bench, I'll compare & submit pic's later, unless someone else beats me to it. Quote Link to comment

shane_lxi Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Well here is mine before and after hope this helps Was that from an upholstery shop, or is that like a 'summit' style skin? Looks clean btw :D. Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 None of those look stock. AFAIK all bench seat 620s were all vinyl, no cloth anywhere. The only 620s with cloth on the seats were deluxe kingcabs with plaid buckets (and cloth door panels in the same pattern). I've SEEN the stock vinyl pattern, but I have nothing intact enough to show what it looks like. Just shreds. The pattern was similar all years, but '73 ones didn't have the indentation.

420n620 Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 the black seat is from a 74 620 and has a basket weave design, looks original but not 100% if is. i got this blue seat from a 75 but looks differant, not the basket weave stye. hope this help you out, Quote Link to comment
datsunaholic Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Nope, neither of those are original either. In fact the top picture at the beginning (the blue one) is the closest I've seen. The original pattern was pretty complex. It's the same pattern as the original bucket vinyl, or really close, that was used on everything except the Z in the 70s. Maybe I have some shredded ones around... have to look under the cover on my '75, maybe it still has part of the original left. I know I threw 2 away, but both were significantly shredded. I may still have the ones out of my '78 and '79. Quote Link to comment

reese Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Thanks for all the pics, none are original though. The top picture is from that low mile 620 that sold on Ebay recently, it is original. It is the same as the one under the "second cover" on my 620. I think I can get the info from the pic/cover I have but if anyone has a bigger or better picture post it please. Quote Link to comment
Bugeye Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 mine is original, I will have to go take a better pic for you in the morning when there is light out Quote Link to comment
