Hello,
Is there anybody out there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone at home?

Come on now
I know you're feeling swell
Well, you can ease my pain
And get me on my feet again

Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it fits?

Thanks Ken,
I have scoured the internet over the last 7 years and have hundreds of photos including those you provided. I had thought about taking the total dimension of my seat and dividing by the number of stiches in the photo... but that's still guessing. Unfortunately one has no way of knowing if they are original. The car in GM Heritage museum (The photo you sent taken at the Janesville plant) would be a gold mine to visit and document but they are not open to the public. If I could get access I would photo and document for the entire VCCA club!
Thanks again for taking the time to respond and appreciate anything else you care to send. You are welcome to use my email as I check it daily.
Thanks again, Tom

Hello, nice know that there are other The Wall fans in the club. Or maybe there are a connection between Old Chevys and Pink Floyd?
Any how, I'm also interested in pictures, have an 1925 superior touring, maybe some panels are the same?

I have every PF album! wavey

According to my research the interior is very close on 23-26.
You can download the spec sheets from the GM Archive and compare the 2 side by side.
