I drive a 1977 VW diesel rabbit. Still think its a fantastic car except
for one thing: the right front seat seems to have been stuffed with straw
which has all crumbled to a powder leaving some springs and the leatherette
covering. The drivers seat is in fine condition.

As I sometimes (but not often) carry a passenger, can anyone suggest how
I can fix the right front seat for a reasonable cost (i.e., cheap!)?
Do I have to replace the whole thing? Suppose I got one from a junk
yard, wouldn't it suffer the same malady?  Anyone else had this
problem?

I guess I chose this newsgroup because I am really more interested in
an explanation of what has gone wrong than anything else.
