Congrats!  You're making good progress!  It'll be fine for a little driving around without the shrouds, stay away from bumper to bumper traffic where the car can just sit in its own hot air.

I would keep the panels until you have, in your hands, something to replace them.  Clark's repros the seat covers in all the colors, I don't see any particular one as "easier to find" than another.  As for used stuff, there just aren't many really nice pairs of seats out there any more.
