76 Liquifrie cover

Is there some place I could get a pattern for a 76' Liquifire? My sister does a lot of sewing so I would get her to make me one if I can find a pattern.

Scott, did you get your seat recovered yet? If not, is there enough of the old seat cover left to make a pattern out of? If not, just use some paper or cardboard to make a pattern with. I just redid three of my seats that way. Also, fabricland in Brandon has black vinyl, rated for -40, uv resistant, and very supple for $7 a yard. I did three seats, and have enough left for two more for $45.

The seat was "recovered" by the previous owner. He took one large piece of vinyl and stretched it to cover and packed the hole in the seat with little bits of foam.

I might be cheap but I can't justify the 250+ to get a seat recovered and then have it done incorrectly. A friend got the seat done on his saber jet a wile back it looks decent but the snaps aren't done correctly, and I think for that kind of money it should be done right.

The rate I am going on the Liquifire it might be next winter before it runs. It might help if I stop getting more projects that need less work so I do them first.

P.S How many pieces should the seat on a 76' Liquiire be made of.
