Re: [AMC-list] pie in the sky award winner...or new couch for wife? SC/Rambler couch

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In 2007 Russ that a Hurst SC/Rambler SOFA was one of the door prizes at a North Coast AMC meet. I remembered it simply because if I would have won it, Paige would have not gotten this it would have went in poppa's AMC man cave. She would have had to sleep on floor with Chewy the annoying dog.

There is a photo of it here, this is North Coast AMC newsletter, it is Adobe format, so hopefully your 1940 Dumont computer that takes 15 minutes to warm up those glowing tubes has Adobe:

        Eddie; You mentioned doing a PC fabric sofa. Years ago I had a back seat that I couldn't sell. It was in a little better condition than the one featured. I even offered it free at one point, no takers.
        So I had a garage couch, I covered it with the fabric, and took it to a swap meet. I sold the couch with the fabric installed for $40.
        I can stitch up a pretty good set of seats, but this was one of those bang together jobs as the fabric was thin and brittle. The couch was a garage couch where I would sit and clean chrome or a carb. That sort of thing. But these two factors together seemed to come together and the couch worked.out nicely......Russ
