Xander Wildeisen Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I am looking to purchase some leather hides for the interior in my Hudson pickup. Looking for a nice quality distressed leather, and advice on where to go would be helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I got my leather from my 1957 MGA from an interior design studio. They have LOTS to choose from and you can usually pick your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Be careful buying furniture leather for use in automobiles. It my not have the correct UV protection, it may not have the life you want (it may wear quickly, remember furniture is built to last a few years only), and worst of all, it may be "bonded" leather, which sounds so nice, but is actually scraps of leather glued back together and dyed....awful stuff....
