I have no compunction about doing car upholstery.  But then I'm willing to 
do a convertible top, given time and patience enough.

Doing a bench seat would be not too bad as upholstery goes.  Having said 
that, I'd recommend you get a book or video first and have a good look at 
what you need to do.

Oh, and don't skimp on your hog-ring pliers.  Good ones are worth the money.
