Interior retrim




When the car was bought it had cloth/nylon over covers fitted and glued over the original leather ones.

Whilst the door panels and tops were reasonable 40 years had taken their toll and it. The carpets had seen better days and when Will removed the seats and front rubber mating a few mice nests were discovered along with missing wooden floor bording.
It was decided to undertake a full retrim on the car including carpets, seats, the hood cover,and leather around the hood cover stowage area. I have also decided to fit a rear jump seat to the car.

The materials have now arrived and the trimmer is getting ready to start work on the car. The match for the leather was found to be best in the glove box area which was unaffected by light etc.
