Ok, enough of the waffle!! Project Amazon is still alive and kicking. This is how she looks before she was put away on hold until now.

The last update the alcantara dash was fitted, and was waiting for Andy to finish off the rest of the trim.

The rest of the trim was finished nicely, the steering wheel was a treat. This was hand stitched and the detail in the stitch work was beautiful! After all those years of serving his apprentice in Bentley when a youngster, you can see his skills come through by the photos I have taken. Andy still serves at Bentley as a head foreman and churns out beautiful trims on brand new Bentley cars in Crewe.

Using the best hide too! The blue stitching was chosen to go with the colour of the car. The reason for choosing a red center marker on the steering wheel and not yellow or blue with the rest of the stitching was to tie in with the door release and the harness to break up too much of the blue.

Wow!

How many 964's do you have then? Is the supercharged one a new purchase? I'd love to hear more details about that!

Norm, it's almost a sense of relief that you are posting again especially the photo's!

Keep it up, we want to see it through to the end, just like you do.
