Thanks guys, it was done by Daniel at 'A Stitch in Time' at Croydon Park, if you don't mind waiting a while, as he gets very busy, its worth it, these pics don't do it a whole lot of justice but the workmanship is impecable.

Wow! Danny (A stitch n time) does a great job. He has been listed in the suppliers for a few years under Upholstery Terry. I got him to rebuild my front bench seat about 6 years ago with some NOS courtesy of rustydungers - he did a perfect job.

that's looking real sweet Tim. Question re the pics...did you take them like that (ie the car cut in half) or is the Forum upgrade doing that?

Looking great Tim 8), cannot wait to see it in the flesh. Shane's handiwork on the chrome looks great against the paintwork. It's going to be a beautiful looking car when it's all done. An inspirational build.
