Hey Folks,

Anyone ever patch upholstery from the original cloth?  I have looked at Samba 
feeds etc... And don't see any that relate to my 1985 cloth uphostery for the 
rockNroll bed.  It started as a small tear and keeps growing even though I 
tried to flip the piece (the flat back piece that sits atop the engine).  
I found some "cloth repair" in the camping equipment at Academy that looks 
pretty good -no sticky residue, last years etc....compared to the $2.50 glue 
used on a bus I saw with vinyl seats.  

Any thoughts?  I tried to just unzip the cushion to take off the fabric, but 
its the original and I guess I am going to have to cut it off the zipper seems 
cemented on since 1985. (Used my zipper grease from my Jeeps softtop days still 
no luck) 

Personal mail me for a photo if needed.  

Looking forward to Classic this year with my kids -just hoping to camp without 
creating more tears as we sleep in the Westy.  :-(

Thanks,
Sarah
