New leather

[Travis Goodwin <tgoodwin@xxxx>]

The leather on my seats have dried over years of neglect. It seems that the
trade-off for low mileage means leather that was not tended to regularly. I
got what I thought was a very reasonable quote ($800) to reupholster both
seats and the passenger side knee pad. I was told that the GM black leather
matches what is in the car now (possibly a parts x-over?) and that the
reupholstery and stitching would be identical to the original. Being
considered a collectible now, how will this procedure affect its value
positively or negatively?

ps-Also, when I get it done, I'll get the exact source of the leather and
vinyl so it can be added to the X-over lists.
