Period-correct seat restoration for classic and muscle cars, plus everyday driver interiors — done right the first time.
Classic Car & Automotive Upholstery
You can spend years and thousands of dollars restoring the mechanical and cosmetic condition of a classic car, and then let it down with substandard interior work. A perfect body and paint means little when you climb inside and find cracked vinyl, sagging headliner material, and seats that don't match the era of the car. The interior is where you live when you drive it — it deserves the same attention as everything else.
Sean Sheridan has worked on automotive interiors of all kinds since 1993 — from daily drivers with worn-out driver's seat bolsters to full classic car restorations requiring period-correct materials. He works with genuine leather, vinyl, and cloth in patterns and colors that match factory specifications for the year and model, or in custom combinations when the owner wants something more personalized.
For muscle cars and American classics from the 1950s through the 1980s — Camaros, Mustangs, Chevelles, GTOs, Chargers, and more — Sean can source the correct pleat patterns, piping styles, and material types that were original to the car. Whether you're aiming for a correct show restoration or a tasteful custom, he'll discuss the options and make sure you understand what's achievable within your budget.
Custom motorcycle seat upholstery is also available. Sean has worked on everything from vintage Harleys to modern sport bikes and custom choppers, including custom-shaped seat pans with memory foam and custom stitch patterns.
For show cars and concours restorations, material accuracy matters. Sean has access to reproduction interior materials for a wide range of American classics — correct cloth patterns, correct vinyl grain textures, correct piping colors — and can match factory specifications documented in judging guides. If you're building for the show circuit or just want authenticity, Sean understands what that requires and won't cut corners.
For custom builds, the sky is the limit. Sean has done two-tone diamond-stitch leather seats, bespoke motorcycle saddles with hand tooling, and truck bench seats in materials that coordinate with custom paint jobs. Bring your inspiration photos and he'll work with you to develop a design that's achievable and built to last.
