Default Looking for an interior trimmer, UK. Essex area

Little help from the collective, especially if you have first hand experience please.

I'm looking to retrim the interior of the old girl, but want to make it a different flavour than today, keep the same colours, but make it mine.

Soooooo if you know any decent local interior trimmers to Essex, and have first hand experience of their work. please drop me a line .


Thanks


Kevin.

That's some pretty vibrant stuff there, close but not sure it's my cigar.
Thanks anyway.

went today and had a look and talk with Simon, so I've asked for some pricing and options......included a more refined more subtle quilted finish....

thanks for the input guys.

Cheers Frank,


Funnily enough, talking to trimmers in this neck of the woods, they do source original kit through southbound on occasion, its just a bit too far to travel present circumstances etc.


Thanks.

Hi Kevin
These guys are just around the corner from me. Latchingdon Essex;

http://www.countycoachtrimmers.co.uk/about.html

They do a lot of work for another local company called JD Classics. (Very top end car restorers). I have seen some of their work and it is fantastic.
HTH.

Well SF came back with a price, but high for my budget, if you look at the green monster it gives an overview the top idea of where I was going and at £3200; it's too rich for my pocket.


Thanks so far.

Kevin.

No affiliation and no experience of their work.

Only guy I would trust would be Rob O'Rrourke at http://www.coachtrimmers.com/index.aspx His reputation is the best. Just check out the gallery of cars he has worked on. Plus he is not miles away in West Sussex. His farther owns http://www.mototechnique.com/ Quality runs in the family
