Afternoon everyone. Wondering if anyone has pics for the front and rear seats in a '57 Fleetwood. I have trim code 72. My door panels are in decent condition and I know what the colors are, but would like to show my upholstery guy what the seats should look like as far as inserts, seams, etc. The previous owner stripped the seats before they went to the upholstery shop and I have a basic Model 62 seat in the car at the moment, but it seems like the Fleetwood would be different. Color doesn't particularly matter, really looking for the style of the fabric and leather. Thanks in advance if anyone happens to have anything!

  It doesn't look like anyone is going to send pictures.  There are artist drawings in the 1957 Data book pages 76-77. The rear is also in the 1957 New Car Specifications manual (op-spec manual). It does mention in text ,that the pipes are 2 inch.

In the meantime, you can also just go to google images, type in "1957 Cadillac Fleetwood" and click on a few of the dozens for sale that show the interior including rear seats within the ad...

Thanks for the responses everyone. I appreciate it. Yup, finally went looking for fleetwoods for sale and found some decent pics. At least good enough for my interior guy to have an idea. Had already ordered the samples from SMS. Motivating the interior guy is the next challenge ;)
