Default New upholstery

I’m really happy with the trimming. Still a lot to do when I get it home but it’s getting closer.

I love the color of the interior. Your interior has me rethinking my post LB interior decision.

Thanks guys. I had some help from my partner who’s got a great eye for colour combinations. It’s a little tricky when you’re looking at a pile of upholstery swabs. But I did a lot of searching images on the internet and knew what I wanted, what looked good on a white car and really just had to choose what my trimmer had access to. The leather is Italian and took months to come in last year.

And the final boot is done. I can’t wait to get the roadster home again and start finishing up the hundreds of little things to get it on the road. Dan.

Hi guys. Well I finally got the roadster home. The convertible frame has to stay outside so the hoist is free to go up and down while working on the roadster. Not ideal but I’ll have to make do awhile.
