Tom, Thanks again with your help with this. I am guessing the answer here will also help others. I can't be the only one that would prefer to save original upholstery if possible.

I'm right with you on that Bill. My Caprice interior is starting to crack in the same way. It's tough to try to keep it as unrestored as possible and have things like this happen. Like when the engine got rebuilt, everything got painted. Jay Leno came by one day at a show and asked why I painted the engine. I told him what happened. Other things on my car like the back window needs attention because of rust in the channel (my car is one of those Nu Yawk cars). How do you fix the rust, secure the window again and try to match the weathered paint? Well, I'll be watching to see what can be done about the cracking vinyl seats. I'm going to need to do something too.
