Interior Advice

Hello
My first post so go easy! I ve posted pics of my car in the photo section (gonein60seconds - I couldnt think of anything else!) ANYWAY the reason for the post. Im in the UK my cars nearing completion but needs a total interior.

The UK is very limited and stupidly priced can you guys sugegst any links for US dealers where I might be able to get replica seats and interior?

Cheers James

James:

Check the "makers" section of this site for Vintage Speedsteers or John Steele (JPS Motorsports)

If you want traditional (read that "real Porsche 356") stuff, then look in the links section, or try Tweeks.com or klasse356 or look on Ebay. Those places often have complete interior kits.

You could also look up some of the UK builders on this site and email them directly for their advise.

Hi James,
Be careful when you choose the seats and don't forget to get info on width of the seats, mounting parts and total height with the mounting parts. When I was improving my replica and my upholsterer was taking ages to start working on my seats, I thought about that possibility, but if I went with the faithful repros of original seats (like the ones you find in Stoddard and Tweeks) I would increase ride height, which would mean that my legs would hit the original vdm wheel that I installed or I wouldn't have enough head room. In the end, I decided to wait a few more months for the upholsterer to start the job and another few more months for him to end (phew!, I say; he took 2 years to deliver the job) and even in the end too much foam in the seats resulted in hitting the wheel.
Best regards and good luck.
