  • Leather Seat Covers for 2006 Chrysler Crossfire?
    Leatherseats.com makes them for the Crossfire. I have used many of their kits for years and they are nice. I have had no issues with them. I had a 05 Chevy come back after several years and the customer had worn the drivers bottom out. I called them up and they still had had it on file. They shipped me out a new cover and it matched perfect.

  • 1959 ford Fairlane 2 door
    I hate to even mention this company but only SMS (Service May Suck) makes door panels and covers for the ‘59. Plan on a minimum of 1 year for possible shipping date. I have one coming in in April for door panel. I will be doing stock look using custom techniques. I used closed cell foam on this 33 Ford pictured and created a 59 inspired panel. I will do the same thing on the car scheduled in May. This may work if your customer in not wanting to be 100% OEM reproduction. ql3o9tpfi46khll7.jpeg
  • Binks adhesive sprayers
    I have had a Binks 2-gallon pressure pot for over 30 years. Love it! I can let it set for two weeks with no problems of drying up. Very seldom do I have to take the gun apart to clean. The tip I clean frequently just to keep buildup off the tip for a good spray pattern. I change the pot liner every time I fill it and shake it every morning when I plug air to it to keep the glue mixed up. I have had to clean the regulators a couple time over the years but only due to tipping it over in transport. I can set the gun down anywhere in a vehicle and not worry about it tipping over or spilling in any way. I can spray any direction even under dashes with no problem. It has been one of the best investments I have made.
  • Thoughts on cutting foam
    I have replaced the trusty turkey carver with fish filet knives. The blades come in an assortment of sizes and widths. I like the thinner blades with small tipped ends, They are a bit more money than the cheap $20 hardware store models but they seem to last longer.

    Naseem, it is a 2014 CTSV interior. The dash in this Chevelle fit a little better than the 2013 I put in the 57 BelAir. The door panels were a challenge but they turned out nice.
  • medalions and aluminium trim
    Both Krist Customs and Smart Parts have great products. https://www.claytonmachine.com/ Clayton Machine Works is another. http://www.paulatkinsinteriors.com/Dashworks.html Paul Atkins produces a lot of custom dashes but shipping to the UK might be scary. I put one of his dashes in my wife's 66 Chevelle about six years ago along with the Clayton window cranks.

  • Glue Pot
    Binks 2 gallon pot for close to 30 years as well. Secret is to change pot liner every fill. I very seldom have to clean the lines or pot unless I tip it over in transport and glue gets up into the gauges (only happened twice). I remove the tip head and clean when needed no different than a gun. The liners keep the inside of pot spotless. I like it because I can turn the gun any direction and it sprays the same. Great for up behind dashes, overhead on roofs ect. I can also lay the head unit down anywhere and not have to worry about it tipping over or unhooking the airline to hang it.
