Interior trim and paintwork polish (December 2007)

Interior trim

Interior specialist Barbara finished the various upholstery tasks. The original blue velour material used for the LEB seats is completely unobtainable, so we had to settle for a near-equivalent. Barbara did an excellent job of stitching in a facsimile of the pattern pressed into the old seat covers during manufacture. She also cut a complete new set of carpets, and managed to clean up the original vinyl door cards and floor mats. As the mats are a bit tired, she made a pair of protective covers for them to save them from further wear.


Paintwork polish

Bodywork expert Graham completed the final flat and polish of the new paintwork.
