Vintage Restoration
Hundreds of vintage interiors restored over the decades, including most of the vehicles at the General Motors Heritage Center.
Period-correct, every stitch.
Authorized LeBaron Bonney installer, experienced in Stayfast canvas tops, diamond-tufted leather, wool carpets, and the rest of the disappearing crafts.
Show vehicles for GM, Ford, Chrysler, and Volkswagen have all come through the shop. Examples of our work are on display at the GM Heritage Center and have been shown at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum.
The rest of a classic interior.
A restoration usually touches more than the seats.
Soft tops in Stayfast canvas, full vinyl roofs, padded landau tops, and fitted car covers are all on Convertible Top Repair and Replacement. Cracked dash pads are recovered over the original core; see Dashboard Recovering. Door panels are rebuilt on new board; see Door Panels and Interior Trim. Period-correct cut-and-sewn carpets are on Automotive Carpets.
Finished cars from the shop are in the Gallery.
