Saab 96
Late last year we trimmed a rather nice Saab 96. Here's a few random photos I've [Louis] just found on my phone.
Mk1 Golf GTI Seats
Sometimes we just like to do things the way Volkswagen intended, so it was great when we were brought some very grubby Mk1 Golf GTI seats to do just that.
Nigel Fleet's '58 Ragtop
More fat biscuit action with Nigel Fleet's stunning '58 ragtop. Orginal front seats and door panels trimmed in beige pvc with beige cloth inserts. The rear seat has been omitted for that slick race look. 1200 style headlining and ragtop inner in beige West Of England wool cloth with black Mohair ragtop outer. Oatmeal square weave carpet completes the overal look.
Purple Ragtop
Stock seats and door panels trimmed in cream leather with beige pipping and polished aluminium door panel trims . Carperts, parcel shelf and under bonnet in beige square weave. Headlining and ragtop inner in beige West Of England wool cloth. The glove box is custom trimmed in matching West Of England to house the stereo head unit, and the parcel shelf features hidden speakers trimmed in beige speaker cloth.
'53 Ragtop Oval
Beard Super Seats trimmed in tan leather, brown piping and fat biscuit cloth inserts. Rear seat and door panels have matching leather and fat biscuit cloth combination. Oatmeal square weave carpet throughout with herringbone cloth binding. West of England cloth takes care of the full headlining and ragtop inner, while the ragtop outer is finished in black mohair.
Greg Howell's Golf R32 Recaros
Trimmed to match the original rear seats in genuine hide direct from Recaro's supplier in Austria.
Inch Pincher & Lightning Bug
Just a couple of the Nostalgia Bugs at EBI 4 this weekend in Chimay, Belgium that we've worked on.
We're Not In Kansas Anymore...
It's not often you see a Wizzard Roadster these days. The owners have had this for nearly 20 years and have taken the last 10 years restoring it. We were given the task of putting the finising touches in terms of fitting it back up and trimming it.The interior features hand fitted bucket seats in Burgundy Brookland UK Hide plus matching rear rear seat & door panels, with hand fitted carpets in grey square weave through out.
Phil Slade’s Turbo Bug
Here’s Phil Slade’s New Beetle that we’ve recently worked on. We have remodelled Golf Mk4 Recaros for the front and the standard rear seat in raspberry PVC. We have also trimmed and smoothed out the front and rear door panel inserts to match, with old school Beetle type map pockets and custom made rear speaker grills to compliment the raspberry vinyl. Other touches include matching armrest, gearshift gator, front grab handle and seat belt buckle covers. Phil has done some great detailing through out the car including carbon fibre skinning many of the plastic seat and dash parts.

T4 Van Conversion
Another one of Louis' rides. Converted from an old van, we trimmed this using genuine caravelle seats & panels in grey vinyl & tweed through out. Subtle mods on the outside included lowering, debadged front grill & rear tailgate, clear lenses all round and moon discs
