Off to Melbourne to get the interior restored





The car is off to Melbourne Friday to have the interior restored, as the photo's show the interior looks every day of its 31 years. I brought the original material for the seat inserts from Germany and although it cost Aust$1000.00 my motor trimmer assures me it was a bargain as everyone in the trade believes the material was no longer available the car will be finished in about a week.

With the car almost back together there is only a few touch ups and the final polish to complete it and if the rear 1/4 window trim has arrived from Germany I will have it home Friday night and will detail it over the weekend as well as giving it the Italian tune up :)
