Hi all,

Along with my XR6 I own an XD ESP (with the factory fitted Scheel front seats) When i was in Canberra (1990) I had these seats recovered and well now they need doing again. The material is not a problem (i have the remnants of a roll of the original grey/black material) but i do need some new Foam Bolsters.

The Scheel dealer used to be at 73 Dickson Ave Artarmon, and the online white pages still have them at that address. However I've been trying to get in touch with them for a while and although the phone rings - no-one answers.

Can i ask if any of you guys live or work near this address please check it out for me to see if it actually still exists. If anyone out there can suggest any-one else who deals with Scheel seats I would be very appreciative.

Cheers All

Look in the yellow pages for a good auto upholsterer who does custom work , he should be able to organize the parts.

Bad news I'm afraid.
That address in Artarmon is now an office furniture outlet. I asked the fella in the store if he knew of previous traders whereabouts, & he said he knew nothing.....

HMMMM Just as I suspected.

Seems strange that Telstra still has the advert listed and a phone does ring but i guess if they are not told they just disconnect the line.

anyway thanks a lot for checking it out for me

Catch ya later

Try find some Escort places(shops,web sites)as scheel was originaly for RS2000's(I think...)
Quicko RS maybe(dont know if they are still alive)in adelaide!

sure was Rolfy, the Australian RS2000's had the seats, the european RS2000's had the brimstone under the hood. Still a very nice machine.

quickco used to be up in Ridgehaven if I remember right, Yellow pages time.
