Rover Interior
Posted: Sun Nov 15, 2015 2:25 am
Hi All
I'm looking at the interior of the Rover P3 and after some suggestions for materials that were used in the process of trimming the interior of the car. With the sliding sunroof I find that the green trim and the headlining both need replacing and I'm having some difficulty finding a suitable replacement, bearing in mind that at present I don't need to retrim the car entirely. The "green trim material" is cracked and crazed and also faded and generally unserviceable. It is a fabric type base, with a green vinyl like cover, the closest match I've been able to find is through Segals, but it has a texture that is too pronounced, the headlining through them is a felted rather than a woven. I think that this may be available through Woolies. But am interested to know whether anyone has recently retrimmed a 1948 car in green and kept close to the original materials.
Cheers
Adrian
