    Ready for new interior, and I want to just cover the seats with some good ole mexican blankets. Trouble is, I'm not close to Mexico. Where can I pick some of these up that are big enough to cover bench seats in a '54 chubby?

    I got mine on e-bay . They have a good selection on them . Be carefull and make sure you don't get the cheap thin ones . Make sure you ask if they are the heavy ones or not . They should be around $12 to about $15 plus shipping . Also look under Indian Blankets too !

    Do a search on Mexican Blankets and find the other 500 threads asking the same question (one of which is mine!)
