Got some front/back bench seat cores coming. After taking them down to the springs to clean them up I'll need the materials to rebuild them. What are you using for foam, cotton matting, burlap? Where are you buying it from? I am not doing a restoration by any means. Just want it installed, presentable, and on the road. A buddy used egg crate foam for a street rod bench and it worked good for him.

Much of the foam, burlap/underlayments, and cotton batting can be found in local stores such as a "Hobby Lobby" or "JoAnn Fabrics". You can also source the materials at an upholstery supply store too, but you may end up paying a bit more. The hog rings and pliers can be found at "Farm and Home" or Ace Hardware stores, get a good pair, your hands will appreciate it.
