jmcap Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi All,I'm having difficulty in finding someone who can make the proper pleated convertible boot that was unique to the Starfire. Any help with the name of a reputable supplier would be appreciated.Thanks,www.oldsmobilesforever.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsfan Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 SMS should be able to do that, or at least provide the properly embossed material so that you can take it to your upholsterer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcap Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 Paul,I spoke at length with Doug via email and yes they have the pattern. After feeling convinced that they could do the job. I asked for an invoice that spelled out all the particulars as well as amount of deposit required and method for final payment. It's been two months and to date received nothing. Have a feeling it's too much of a deal for a one time product rather than the cookie cutters that are sitting in inventory. Either that or I asked too many questions and he didn't want to bother with someone so particular.<!-- google_ad_section_end --> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcap Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Special thanks to the AACA Forum Member who referred me to Dale in Union Grove, Wi. As a result I purchased an original boot rather than continue to hunt down someone who can make a reproduction. Can't wait to have it in hand to rejuvenate and install. As I told Dale, " My Starfire will wear it proudly." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
