Damien,
are you sure that is the original River Cloth bench seat in your car. I have owned a few River Cloth Bench seat cars and the pattern was nothing like that. It was like these photos.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I am thinking that what is in my car is not original and haven't been able to find what it is. I will recover the seats with the correct material from SMS but one thing I cannot seem to find is the vertical striped vinyl back panel. Doesn't seem like that is available.

Later today I had a chance to pull my Dealer Sales Album that has real cut out Swatches of all the cloth seat samples and I can confirm that your seats were definitely switched at some point, so they are not correct for a 1970 Chevelle. I think Legendary Interiors do the cloth seats for a 1970 Chevelle but I am not sure

Danny, thanks for checking, you have confirmed what I had thought.
Dan put me on to Legendary but unfortunately they don't have the cloth. I will order the correct material from SMS and have a trimmer over here make and install the covers.

Dan, you have got me thinking about the amount of material and making sure I have enough. A long way to go for a little extra if I'm short! SMS have told me 3 yards of cloth and 5 yards of vinyl will do the front bench and the rear seat. I have found that a yard is 36"x56" so I will measure up roughly tonite and might get an extra yard of each just to be sure. It's not cheap but will be cheaper than being short.
