Simplex/servicycle logo on a seat
« on: March 04, 2016, 07:30:05 AM »
Got a 2 part question for y'all...First, any of you guys have a picture of a seat from Heathers Leathers with the servicycle/Simplex "logo" on it? (Curious about size, location of the logo, and couldn't locate a pic on their website)  Second, I was considering maybe just sending them another seat pan "to do", and keeping my original "as-is" and wondered if anyone has a "extra" seat pan (in good condition) that they'd consider selling "cheap" for this purpose?  (You can PM on the seat pan with pic and price) Thanks, Paul

Heathers Leathers and Wayne teamed up to have new seat pans made, but I don't k ow the price, but probably not too cheap.

Has anyone contacted Heathers Leathers lately? I tried their email but it bounced back.

I have a seat there now.  Talked with them couple weeks ago and discussed what I wanted for design, etc..  I considered having them build a new seat on a different pan but they didn't have any Servicycle seat pans available.  For questions, try sales@heathersleathers.com or call (803) 222-3452 and talk to Kelly.

My email got through to them after bouncing back twice. My seat pan is on its way to them.

Photo of my original 1940s/41 seat with logo still legible

If you look closely the logo is still visible after 77 years. I am thinking of treating the whole leather seat with a good leather product. Hope that will soften it up and make it last another 77 years. Anybody have recommendations for a good leather treatment product?

Thanks,
henrylr

You can also use a product called Lexol. That's what Cadillac recommends for their leather seats and sells for about $25 a bottle. But you can get the same bottle at a farm store such as Atwoods for about $4.
