westfalia atlantic trim

[..lee..]

for a while now i`ve been trying to source a cloth that is the same as or very close to the atlantic style trim with no luck. even finding trimming cloth in a small enough pattern to look any good is difficult, most stuff looks like it would be more at home on my mothers 3 piece suite and not in a car. i`d like to trim the syncro in oe style cloth and i also need some custom style cloth for the 2wd westy.

so can any of you help me out, gunzel seems to sell certain items in the atlantic cloth but it would work out very expensive to buy it in large quantities.

thanks lee.

thanks lloydy. i know of gunzels site but its a lot of money if you need to to the whole van.

i`m not knocking him atall he`s a good guy and the prices for just one off stuff is ok. when you multiply it by all the bits it gets freightening. be cheaper to go out and buy an atlantic and syncro it. which is what i should have done in the first place.

when i had my autohomes redone i went to my local furniture reupholstery place. They had lots of different fabrics, inc plain grey. As i'm finding out, anything with westfalia in the title has an added tax

hi lee,

theres a small upholstery company in the town i live in here in germany and i once popped in to try and get some very early westy fabric with no luck i might add but he did have a huge selection of vw fabric and said he could get even more patterns. if you could post up a piccie when i get a chance ill pop in and ask if he can source some for you. hes quite a nice bloke and very helpful so im sure if he can get it he will.hope this might help.
