Ferrari SWB 250 Full Interior Retrim No.8

On to our 8th Ferrari 250 SWB, and a red one has finally passed through our doors. From speaking with the company we trim these for, it seems a lot of their customers prefer specifying their vehicles blue as an homage to Stirling Moss' lovely 250 SWB. As much as we love the blue, it was a great change of scenery having a red one here, and with a phenomenal specced brown interior.

Chassis

Like always, these vehicles arrive with zero interior, just bare metal chassis' and seat frames. We then set about fabricating and adjusting all these panels and parts to fit perfectly. Once this has been achieved, we set about retrimming those parts and slowly building the car up.


Before any material can be placed down, we need to sound deaden the vehicle. We only use the best, and the best is Dynamat Europe. We are using two of their products on this project; Dynaliner which was used inside the roof, and in both driver and passenger footwells. Dynamat is the second and was used in doors, rear quarters, rear bulkhead, and tunnel. These products are great for preventing road noise and vibrations, making the vehicle feel much more solid and a more pleasant place to be.

Materials

This vehicle was specced to have a beautiful brown interior, and at first we weren't sure if the brown and red would be the best combination, but we were completely wrong. The brown and red really showcase a feeling of class and elegance, a more premium feeling compared to the other more track-focussed vehicles.


Brown Italian wool carpet was selected for all carpets and over mats, including the rear bulkhead. The leather seats, door cards, parcel shelf, roll cage padding, centre tunnel, and carpet binding were all trimmed in UK hide-supplied brown Vaumol leather.

Results

Below, see the results of this 250 SWB retrim. From here, the car goes back to our customer for final tweaks and any additional mechanical work. This being our 8th completed Ferrari 250 SWB project, enjoy our previous retrims in a variety of specifications.

SLR HDK | Lasering

By Harry Pitcher • August 4, 2025
As mentioned in the Seat section, all of our lasering was accomplished by Chris and Marc from Formation Industries. The tartan pattern was a perfect replica, even the shape and texture of a real piece of tartan material was achieved... somehow, but that's Formation Industries. We have since had samples come through with this pattern in a variety of colours which we now offer as part of any retrims. We are not limited to replicating tartan, but have previously recreated houndstooth which was lasered into distressed leather for another customer. Got a pattern in mind? get in touch and we can make it happen. Not only did Formation Industries laser our seats, but this pattern was repeated onto the headlining and door cards. The dashboard saw multiple SRS Airbag emblems lasered into the dash top and lower dash panels. The floor mats also feature "SLR HDK" logos repeatedly creating a pattern.
