CLASSIC CAR UPHOLSTERY MASTERS IN LEATHER & CLOTH

Classic car interiors are so much more than a set of recovered seats! Our classic car upholstery department repair, recolour and build bespoke interiors. From carpets to headlinings and everything in between!

Repairs, Restoration or Recover?

At Project Shop total re-trims are not the only solution. More often than not we can totally transform the interior of your car without the need for new materials or a complete strip.
Our in house classic car upholstery team use ‘Leather Restoration Company’ products which help us to:
  • Repair cracks and splits in leather and vinyl
  • Repair holes in cloth and carpet
  • Carry out colour restoration on Leather and Vinyl
  • Carry out complete colour changes on Leather and Vinyl
However if the interior of your car is well past its best or you want to change it more to your tastes then we can certainly help.

Complete Re-trims

You can often buy seat covers and door cards directly from your specialist parts supplier. They promise to be ‘great quality, easy to fit and cost effective’. In our experience, they are anything but! The reality is that they are made of average materials and they never quite fit!
The good news is that we can make you a bespoke set of seat covers, in grade ‘A’ materials and tailor them to your car. Almost always within the budget of a mass produced kit and the time taken to fit it.
We use materials that are correct for the age and style of your vehicle, not just those that are the easiest or cheapest available. This will give you the very best, most stylish finish to your interior.
Whether you are looking to replicate the original factory finish, improve on the original quality or want a completely bespoke interior we can help make your vision reality.

Bespoke Carpet Sets

We make all our carpet sets in house, specifically for your vehicle. We use 100% wool, automotive carpet.  The tailored finish means that they fit perfectly and do not ‘ride up’ around complex areas such as seat runners and pedals. They are either wool bound or edged in matching vinyl to your taste. We can even sew in rubber or vinyl heel mats. With over 20 different weaves and colours at our disposal the finished article gives a quality look and feel that you won’t find in a mass produced carpet set.

Headlinings

Often overlooked, a quality replacement headlining can be a game changer for the look of your car’s interior. If your headlining has become detached, sagged under its own weight or is just plain filthy we can replicate the original factory finish or create something unique.

There are few cars more beautiful than an AC Ace. This Bristol engined car needed its seats and leather bringing back to life as well as a new carpet set.

Arnolt Bristol

A Millie Miglia and historic racing superstar, this unique Arnolt Bristol wanted for plump seats and new wool carpets to make it more comfortable for endurance events.

Not every car needs a full re-trim. This XJS has been brought back to factory fresh condition with Leather Repair Company products. Not only do the looks good – The smell amazing 

Porsche 964

Air-cooled 911’s don’t have the most luxurious of interiors. Our brief here was to create something that looked like it came from factory at first glance, but add that missing luxuary. 

Volvo 122s

Part of a total restoration, our customer wanted his Volvo 122s to be comfortable, quiet and inviting. Leather replaced the sticky vinyl and wool carpets the embossed the rubber mats. 

Range Rover 

Sometimes buying a ‘kit interior’ is the only way to get the right cloth or carpet. But that does not mean it has to look mass produced. Tailored to fit we were still able to get an amazing finish.

VW Camper 

CJ has been carrying out an amazing rolling restoration on his beloved ‘Splitty’. When it came to the interior, he knew what he wanted, but couldn’t quite work it out himself. Enter Project Shop!

If your Jaguar XJ, XJS or XK8 is suffering from a saggy headlining, help is at hand! We can replace it with a factory looking replacement that will instantly freshen any interior.
