VW T 4 Van Rock and Roll Seat Upholstery

Hi all here is a short post of a nice 3/4 rock and roll bed that i re trimmed in a very Nice t4 day van......hope you all like.


                           This is the van just been dropped of ready for me to do some magic...........loll

                                                       

First steps was to cut out the foam, this foam i use is a mattress grade foam which is great for sitting and sleeping on.Making sure the foam fits good then you can go on to the cutting of the covers.


Here you can see layed out the blue and silver material the customer wanted....you can see the process needed making sure that it all lines up.


This is the under lining i use, it is a water proof liner just in case there are any water leaks in the van the foam will not get wet............



A closer look at the strips....i had to cut all the pieces very accurately so  when sewing you get this nice straight look.


And as if by magic...all done.You can now see how important it is to get the stripes lining up.... i think there is nothing worse than it not matching........


A cool look....loll seeing it from this angle give what could be just a plain looking re trim into something very good.



Te strips followed on the out side of the van to.....Cool. i managed to get the strips lining up with the inside.


There you have it...a nice little blog showing what can be done.......Hope you all liked and please leave a comment if you like or if you have any questions please contact me on : 07794978914 ......I'm of to the beach now........Cheers .Colin
