I see PUI makes an all vinyl 2 tone blue set for the "coupe", which would be the narrower coupe (HT) rear seat. Front would be perfect, just not the correct wider sedan rear seat. The HT or Coupe has rear side armrests. Sedan does not.
Does any company make a set for a 65 Catalina 2 door "Sedan"? I think the rear seat between the 4 door and 2 door sedans should be the same. I could put Biscayne/Bel Air covers in it as they do make that in a 2 door Sedan combo, but how dumb would that be in a Pontiac?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mark

The 4 door seat bottom will be different, 4 doors have the corners of the bottom cushions cuvrved to allow passengers to get in and out of the doors, vs 2 dr back seats which are squared off- but i think you are on the right track-
Your best bet may be to get the front covers and the rear 4 door covers, and a few extra yards of matching vinyl (PUI will sell it, but you'll need a dealer to order it) then have your local shop just make the rear lower cover to match.
Will be a lot more cost effective then having them custom make them all.
Just be sure when you order the front cover it is not a 4-door front bench, sometimes those are different than a 2-door bench.
