Car Trimming - a DIY approach

[Hentzant]

    I am in the middle of re-upholstering my RP saloon.This is a big job and requires A fair bit of patience.I also bought and industrial singer machine and have spent a good amount of time practicing before starting to cut material.I had all the original trim and have been able to use this To mark out replacement pieces.i have bought 8 metres of red vinyl and think it’s going to be enough to do the whole car.This is readily available from suppliers on eBay .I covered all door and side panels with 1/4 “ foam glued to the ply before covering with vinyl don’t glue the vinyl to the foam attach it at the back of the panel with staples or glue .i use utube for advice on sewing up covers etc.Good luck
