1971 Ferrari 365 2+2

The following pictures are of a recently completed commission for a South Yorkshire owner.

The owner is having the vehicle fully restored and the scope of our work required us to strip the interior of the car and produce a new interior in the original style and to test fit to the owner’s satisfaction prior to body restoration.

The owner wanted to change the interior colour from the original dark blue leather, but rather than going with a more traditional beige or biscuit leather that would normally be associated with a car finished in blue, he wanted to retain a blue interior. After much deliberation he opted to go with a colour that was several shades lighter than the original. Changing the original colour interior can be a tricky option but in this case the completed interior compliments the exterior colour superbly.

Once the owner was satisfied with the fit and finish, we removed the interior to allow the vehicle to go for body restoration. After the vehicle has been completed, the new interior will be refitted at our workshop
