Well we (my son and I) have finally made it to the interior of our '63 Eldorado and thought we would find the original interior underneath the seat covers that had been installed, but instead we find an earlier reupholster job that is not done in the original design. So now we are seeking any advice, photos, etc. or information of any kind on the interior seats of a '63 Eldorado. Leads on interior shops that may be able to reupholster the seats would be great also!
Thanks for any help you may be able to provide!

Perhaps someone will have some good example interior pictures of the 63 Eldo. Mano Forsman has a few interior pictures nested among the pictures we used for the Newsletter Spotlight last year in this folder: http://6364cadillac.ning.com/photo/albums/mano-forsman-1963-eldorad...
Way back in the day Tommy at Auto Interiors in Raleigh, NC had ordered the original fabrics for my 64 CDV from SMS and bet if you provide him (or SMS if buying material direct from them) with your trim code they can get you the original leather and other material.
Here are the 1963 Spec manual scans for the 63 Eldo. This is a scan of a reprint book and not the best quality. If you double click and click again you can enlarge and save:

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,
-Samu
