    Recently my dad and I bought a 1965 Wildcat Convertible. It needs some interior work. I need to find seat upholstery kit, non cracked dash pad, rear armrest covers, and possibly a am/fm radio. It has the standard interior.

    This is what the interior looks like not ours but a picture I found on the net, actually the right colors though. Any help finding sources will be appreciated

    Try CARS Buick parts in New Jersey. I think they carry 65 Wildcat seat covers.

    The dash will probably need to be sent to someplace like Just Dashes to be recovered.
    You will also probably need to have a local upholstery shop redo the rear arm rests and door panels. You can get the correct NOS material from SMS Auto Fabrics.

    Good Luck!

    Looks like the "Deluxe" interior in Saddle (2 tone). I would suggest getting material from SMS ans having your local upholstery shop sew a set.
    PUI has repo'd the Custom interior but not the Deluxe. I had to have Fryer's do mine about 10 years ago but I'm not sure if they are still doing the work.

    SMS did an awesome job on my door panels!! I couldn't be happier. They look exactly like new but they are better materials underneath. Instead of a cardboard backing it is a thick nylon backing. I will never get ruined again.

    One word of caution though..... they can take a loooooonnnnnnnnnggggggg time!
