AC Cobra MK IV Full Restoration

Dave Price • May 7, 2026

This AC Cobra is another full interior retrim completed as part of a vehicle restoration collaboration with Redline Engineering. This is the second project we have recently carried out in partnership with Neil and his team, and the specification for this one is truly something special.


The customer requested a tan Connolly leather, and after working closely with both them and Neil from Redline, we settled on Parkside Caramel nappa leather. It was an incredible choice, the super smooth finish and rich colour work perfectly with the Guardsman Blue metallic paint. We then needed a carpet that complemented the leather equally well, so a biscuit-coloured carpet from Boyriven was selected. New dials and gauges were installed, alongside new seat harnesses.


Redline Engineering UK are the one-stop-shop for everything Cobra. Established in 2001, Neil and his hard-working team provide the best mechanical, engineering, race prep, and restoration services for AC Cobras in the country. With owner Neil originally working in the AutoKraft factory, this means we are able to all work together to create these incredible restorations.


Aside from the interior, this vehicle has been repainted in the original Guards blue metallic, which looks incredible. The wheels have been refurbished to in the original black and silver with chrome spinners, a custom exhaust system to hear that beautiful Ford V8, and a full mechanical overhaul. We have worked on plenty of Redline Cobras, but this one really takes the cake.

This Audi R8 Spyder came to d:class for a steering wheel and gear selector retrim. Our customer didn't like the OEM Audi wheel as the perforated leather was not to their taste. After visiting our HQ and exploring options, the decision was made for black Alcantara and OEM red Audi stitching. The OEM wheels have a 'Baseball' stitch style, which our customer also didn't like, so they have opted for the popular 'link' stitch.
