ALCHEMEE LLC Revives Automotive Elegance with Classic Car Seat Restoration & Manufacturing

HAWTHORNE, NY – November 8, 2023 – ALCHEMEE LLC, a Hawthorne, New York-based company specializing in automotive upholstery and restoration, is making waves in the classic car community. While many focus on engines and bodywork, ALCHEMEE is dedicated to bringing back the feel of vintage driving – starting with the seats. They don't just repair old seats; they revive them, and when originals are too far gone, they expertly recreate them. “We noticed a real gap in the market,” says a spokesperson for ALCHEMEE LLC. “People are pouring money into restoring these beautiful classic cars, but the interior often gets overlooked. A torn, faded, or simply worn-out seat just ruins the whole experience. It’s like putting modern shoes on a historical figure – it just doesn’t fit.” ALCHEMEE LLC isn’t just a repair shop. They're passionate automotive enthusiasts themselves, and it shows in the quality of their work. They’re located at 3 Skyline Dr #2, 2nd Floor, Hawthorne, NY, 10532-2174 and can be reached at 716-413-4939. More Than Just a Patch Job Forget quick fixes and cheap vinyl covers. ALCHEMEE’s approach is thorough and respectful of the original craftsmanship. They handle a wide range of classic car seats from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s – everything from early Mustangs and Corvettes to European sports cars like Jaguars and Triumphs. “We start with a detailed assessment,” explains the spokesperson. “We look at the frame, the springs, the foam, the fabric, everything. If the frame is solid, we’ll rebuild it, reinforcing weak points. If it’s rusted through, we’ll fabricate a new one, matching the original specifications exactly.” The foam is a critical part of the equation. Modern foams are often too soft or too dense for classic cars. ALCHEMEE sources or recreates foam that matches the original density and firmness, ensuring both comfort and proper support. Authenticity is Key: Materials & Techniques What truly sets ALCHEMEE apart is their commitment to using authentic materials. They don’t just grab whatever’s cheapest off the shelf. They actively search for period-correct fabrics, leathers, and vinyls. “We've built relationships with suppliers who specialize in vintage automotive textiles,” says the spokesperson. “It can be tough to find the right stuff, but it’s worth it. The look and feel of the original material is just irreplaceable. We have access to materials that match original patterns, colors, and textures. If we can't find it, we will try to recreate it." ALCHEMEE’s skilled artisans don’t just apply fabric; they craft it. They use traditional upholstery techniques – hand-stitching, pleating, and tucking – to create a finished product that looks like it just rolled off the assembly line. “A lot of modern upholstery shops rely on machines for everything,” says the spokesperson. “We still do a lot of things by hand. It takes longer, but the result is a much higher quality, more authentic product. We hand stitch the welting, the piping, everything. You can feel the difference.” From Restoration to Recreation: A Seat for Every Classic ALCHEMEE offers a full range of services: Complete Seat Restoration: For seats that are damaged but salvageable, ALCHEMEE will carefully disassemble, repair, and reupholster them, using original or reproduction materials. Seat Recreation: If the original seat is beyond repair, ALCHEMEE can recreate it from scratch, using detailed measurements and photographs of the original. Custom Upholstery: While they specialize in preserving the original look, ALCHEMEE can also create custom upholstery designs for those who want to personalize their classic car. (They always advise to keep it period correct though!) Frame Repair/Replacement: ALCHEMEE expertly repairs or completely rebuilds seat frames, ensuring structural integrity and lasting support. Foam Replacement: They match or recreate period-correct foam density and firmness for optimal comfort and support. Beyond the Showroom: A Passion for Classic Cars ALCHEMEE LLC isn’t just a business; it’s a passion project. The team behind ALCHEMEE understands the love that classic car owners have for their vehicles. They treat every seat as if it were their own. “We get a lot of satisfaction from seeing a customer’s face when they get their restored seat back,” says the spokesperson. “It’s not just about making a car look good; it’s about bringing back a piece of history. It’s about making the driving experience as authentic as possible.” Looking Ahead ALCHEMEE LLC is committed to providing the highest quality classic car seat restoration and manufacturing services. They are constantly researching new materials and techniques to improve their craft. They’re also expanding their network of suppliers and partners to better serve the classic car community. “We want to be the go-to shop for anyone who’s looking to restore or recreate a classic car seat,” says the spokesperson. “We’re passionate about what we do, and we’re committed to delivering a product that our customers will be proud of.” Contact Information: ALCHEMEE LLC 3 Skyline Dr #2, 2nd Floor Hawthorne, NY, 10532-2174 716-413-4939
