Hi all, Here's a pic of my redone interior. All upholstery is now in leather, including both dash pads. As the lower pad was cracked pretty bad, this was for me the best solution. More pics later! Regards, Remco Attachments:

Beautiful and very comfortable! Did you find a Pigalle armrest (red) or cover/paint it? Are the dash pads in Black to match the upper door & qtr pads? More photos, please!  |

The armrest is covered in red leather as well, so it is not an original pigalle.
The dash pads are black. The guy who did the interior wanted to do them in red, but I didn't go for that because of the black door pads and the black steering wheel I have.
I hope to have some more pics by the end of the week.
Remco

Hi, Well, the interior is finished. Here are some more pictures: www.flickr.com/photos/remcodb/5824981239/in/photostream/(I tried pasting the pictures here, but somehow that doesn't work when linking to flickr...) Colors are called 'ice' (white) and 'passion' (red). Ice is very close to the color of the car's body, toga white. Both dash pads have been covered in black leather, so the nasty crack above the steering column is gone! The leather makes the pad a bit thicker, so I couldn't get the two center bolts on the top pad on. No problems on the lower pad. The door panels are leather as well. The lines have been stitched on. New boards were made too, using an original doorpanel as a mold. An unexpected problem arose here, namely that the board used was too thick for the original clamps. I tried bending the clamps, but this caused them to be visible on the outside. The solution (purists close eyes now..): velcro!  Only the drivers side doorpanel needs to be put on the car. I ran out of glue for the velcro on the door. Also, putting on the clamp of the window winder is a job you now need at least three hands for. Anyway, the result looks very good. Regards, Remco |
