Re: Leather re-trim

Your right they don't, however as my uncle has used her a number of times before she is willing to make and fit the new covers a bit cheaper if I do the donkey work!

Re: Leather re-trim

I have spoken with the Trimmer and viewed her work, and am quite impressed. She has just retrimmed a DB4 GT (A full resto that my uncle has just completed for a customer...more money then sense) and a couple of split screen campers with bespoke interiors. The price is not a huge amount more than a t...

318 to 325

Chaps

I have embarked on changing my 318 J Plate cabby to a m20 325 (Manual to Auto}, I purchased a complete 325 to plunder.

All the oily bits are swapped, and I was wondering if anyone knows how much of the electrics I have to change?

Cheers!
