    1968 68 Comfortweave Upholstery

    What I found was the frist time I called I talked to a telaphone answerer who could only tell me company policy. On the second call I talked to a manager/owner Dean who was most helpful. I think it is very important to let a company know when you are not happy or nothing will change. Marty
