Where in Texas are you located? There is a fella here in San Antonio that is a member of the local Rover club that owns a company named M4 Auto Restorations that can help you with those seats.

I'm in Fort Worth. I have the original front seats that I need done also. I just looked at his website. Thanks I will call him in the morning.

SEM Color Coat is an excellent product. I have used it on several flexible vinyl parts, and they claim it can be used on seats, but preparation is critical.

Very handsome Landy!

Are those Michelin XZL 7.5x16's that you are using as spares?
Did they come with the vehicle? If not, where did you get them?

I'm partial to the "old school" look myself (my landy is pretty stock, however)...
The larger tires look great on your landy (especially with the wheel-arch treatments).

If you are thinking of selling the 5 Michelins, please PM me... I'm in the market & getting quotes as I type.

Cheers!

Very nice looking series 3. How is it driving for you? The seats look very comfortable.

It runs out good 65+ mph with one hand on steering wheel. One thing about the seats, they hold you in place on bouncy roads no more bouncing you left and right
