HI,
Have question for C3 Corvette interior trim experts.
Please tell me if I'm wrong on this statement.
(The only genuine leather section of the seat upper/lower cover is the seating surfaces)
The bolsters and back panel are vinyl.
 
What model year? Typical factory leather was leather seating surfaces and vinyl skirts. 79-82 cushions and backs might be all leather, but don't quote me on that.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY.
The model year in question is 1977.

PS: I've owned many Corvette's with leather interior and thought the seating surfaces were leather and bolsters/cover back was vinyl.

I know the first leather interior was 1963 and color was saddle only. The seat panels were leather and the remaining cover was vinyl.

For 77, I would say leather surfaces with vinyl skirts. Keep in mind, cloth was a buyer's choice for 77.

The '79 -'82 seats were also leather seating surfaces with the rest vinyl. Some aftermarket suppliers offer full leather covers even back into the C1 cars that never offered leather as an option.

Per The Black Book the seats were all leather or cloth with leather trim. The leather was standard no longer a option. Sorry did more checking and it appears the seats were leather with vinyl trim.
