This is a close up of the headrest, showing off nicely the contrast piping.



The drivers seat ready for many comfy miles of use.



The rock and roll bed all laid out. you can see that it gives a large sleeping area.

A Late Bay Window VW Camper Van Front Seat Re Trim

                                              

Here  is a picture of a new Brazilian bus that a customer ask me to do some re trimming to make the interior more modern and more in keeping with the bus......I hope you all like the pictures and info given.

A classic design of caravan upholstery put into a camper van............MMMMM not my choice !!!!!! but it takes all sorts.




This is a different photo showing the rear of the front seats ...these had a problem that the pop-top roof leaked and soaked and this was the reason for the trimming.......

e

Hear are some colour samples of what the customer was wanting.........better than the original.....



The cutting process under way , as you can see the markings on the revers of the marital... this helps with the sewing.




All cut and ready to sew, This is the rock and roll bed unit. this matched with the front seats.




The seat all laid out and you can see the shapes and parts needed to make it fit the base foam swab.




A smiley face......lol , this show the centre panel ready for the tuck and roll sewing.




A close up of the sewing of the centre panel making the tuck and roll style.



The next stage.....the sewing of the side panels stitched together.....a slow process but well worth the finished result.




A different close up picture showing the boarder to the top panel.



All done and ready  to be put onto the foam swab.....



This is the back sewn in the same way and ready to be put on....re using the old but good condition foam.



Ready to have the cover put on....some silicon is used to help the cover slide over the foam.




All done....PEW....a late night needed to get this right, the finished result looks great.





The two seats side by side ready to be put into the van all that's needed is the head rests fitting....job done.





A angle photo of the matching door cards.....these were styled in the same colour and style as the seats.




New carpet fitted and glued down....the front kick boards were next on the list to do...

.


As if by magic....well quite a few late nights and cups of tea later....




Just a angle view of the van with new roof seals fitted this stopped the leeks into the van....



There all done........ready for the customer to pic up....this is a great look for this bus, ,it really made a difference to the look and styling ...I hope you all liked, see you all soon for some more updates.. If you need any more info you can contact me on : 07794978914 .
Cheers
