Mercedes-Benz 280SE W111 Full Retrim
Harry Pitcher • January 31, 2021
This Mercedes-Benz W111 cabriolet has been transformed into something quite fantastic at d:class. The vehicles front and rear seats have been professionally retrimmed in grained tan leather, with period-correct basketweave perforated seat centres.
Bespoke velour carpets and floor mats have been created to compliment the new look with matching leather binding. Last, but not least, we have the vehicles hood, which now boasts new headlining, foam padding and rear screen. The mohair cover has been reused due to its good condition. Lastly, the wood trim has been returned to its former glory making this W111 quite unique. #dclassauto

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.
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.
