Chris and Dave were brillant.

I've attached some photo. I'll add the finished images of the car tomorrow as the images are on my work PC.





Chris did suggest that some sagging might occur in hot weather from quilting the roof. I would suugest using an alternative non contact adhesive for the roof.

The window pillars and other areas covering bars really need to be held in place with some type of lacing on the non visible side of the bars. The car got really hot in Italy this summer and it has experienced some glue creeping. Overall the leather work was of a very high standard.

PM me with your tel and call you for a chat about the car.

will be loading some pictures on monday of the car in its before stage.. to be honest its not a bad looking motor in before stage HALYCON BLUE ON CREAM... but after god knows how many super cars i have had and ... i know that a shiny newly painted cerb, with bespoke interior and some tlc from the magicians you guys have recommended.. i think it is hard to find another car that will give me the same kick.

plus i like the fact that the cerb doesnt come with the same stigmas attached to some other super cars...!

could we just merge this thread into an interior pics thread.. i am about to start my interior and torn between a light interior or a dark interior... Something in me says i may feel a little claustrophobic if the interior is to dark.. So feel free to post some beautiful pics of some stunning cerb interiors..

Here is mine, I know it's not to everyone tastes but it certainly brightens the inside of the car up!
