My other thought was Pontiac, but the way the lower seatback seam curves horizontally (like a manilla file folder at an office supply store) and the wide ribbing of the colored insert area makes me think more Fordlike. Absolutely not a Chrysler pattern. I want that guy's coat! -- Last edit: 2009-08-03 02:29:52
