Hi Vonsenger- any pictures?
Evening, there is but I'm just waiting for some good ones. Here's a snapshot of the interior though






The trimmer managed to get the weave from the same place as singer add the UK stuff is pressed and not a weave. The door cards and centre of dash will be the same weave as the seats. I've also gone for 9Eleven headlights which are just a work of art!



As I said, it's been a steep learning curve and not as straightforward as i anticipated. Happy to help point you in the right direction, it'll save you alot of time. Although to be honest it was all part of the journey. The toughest part was choosing a colour combo. In the end I went with gulf blue as i saw one at le mans many years ago and just fell in love.
It'll be ready in 4 weeks so I'll get some pictures up.

I’ll just leave these here...

Stunning, can't wait to get mine. You can do some great stuff on a moderate budget. I love the singer concept but it's a huge wedge of cash.

Seventy7 are on YouTube I think. Or is it 911 magazine? I'm sure i came across them recently.

Looking Forward to seeing yours though!

If these companies can bring these in at sub 100k, I think they'll thrive. Don't get me wrong, 100k is a lot of money but if you can get to within 50% of the singer experience, customised to your exact spec, I'd have one. There's a big market for aftermarket singer-esque parts, but they ain't cheap. My dials cost me a £1k to do from REAP, expensive but at least it's possible.

W77 have done some MBs, an Alfa, Mk1 Golf GTi as well.

I get the appeal, but ignorant on the costs - that said, £1k for your clocks sounds about what I’d expect.

I thought it was a lot considering they're my clocks. But, they did a phenomenal job, they look factory in my opinion.
