Car interior

This is my wolsely hornet 'Kermit' which was finished a year ago. My partner, (who owns his own garage 'Dr V Dub' off Fawcett road in Southsea), built it from scrap, bolts and nuts during 2 months ( I know I am a lucky girl) . I made the interior from brand new mint heavy duty vinyl. Took me about 10 hours to upholster. It is lined with 1 inch yellow foam throughout the whole interior. If you like to get your car/camper - anything re-upholstered, just get in contact with me and I will make you an estimation!
