Just completed my interior refresh.  Original dash blends nicely with the new seats and carpets.

Not DIY.  The upholstery and carpets were fabricated by GAHH.  The leather was from Hans Reinke (OldTimer).  I installed the Dynamat, as well as some trim pieces but the rest was done by a professional upholsterer.  He came to my home over two days.  Sadly, I just didn’t have the confidence to take this on.

Here’s a pic midway through the installation. Some parts were glued in place others carpets pieces merely fitted.

The upholstery ... fabricated by GAHH.
The leather was from Hans Reinke (OldTimer).

I thought upholstery was the leather??

Wow that looks fantastic.   Gives me inspiration as I’m in the early stages of a refresh myself.

The leather was produced by Hans Reinke and then made into seat covers by GAHH.
