[QUOTE="bal3056, post: 152873, member: 584"] Hi, Good to hear some satisfied customers as well as some dissatisfed ones in regard to refurbishing their interiors. In my field (I shouldn't mention it here) I have tried and tested numerous cushion and leather guys and I've come to one conclusion ... the real test for a leather shop is when you throw them vintage or classic cars to do a complete interior refurbishing which involves lots of redesigning/custom work or originality in design theme, very hard work and lots of brainstorming (go crazy at times), stitchwork-flow throughout the seats, original carpet laying with no bends/folds, smooth-flowing headlining using bars across (not today's hardboard .. this is easy) etc etc. That's why not many want to take on such jobs! Honestly I can only vouch for 2 or 3 guys in the market but they too need some form of supervision when it comes to these old classics. It's all in the detailing!! Just thought of sharing some info with all. Cheers, HM [/QUOTE]
