It wasn’t easy to find a kit that matched the original upholstery in a 1964 Pontiac Tempest Custom. Kits for a 1964 Lemans, GTO, and even base Tempests were available, but not a Custom. So when I saw a Custom version available online back in 2017, I immediately ordered it despite the fact that there wasn’t a photo.
Much to my chagrin, when the kit arrived, it did not match what I had. Thankfully(?) I discovered that I had been shipped the wrong product. I was extatic when the replacement arrived and it was a perfect match!
Installing the covers would have to wait until the car was shipped up to WA six years later, in 2023. I finally had a three car garage and a little time to work on the car. Here are the results…
