Interior changes

The inside is sort of coming together now.

the door card, not perfect but hey, I did it! if anyone has a bendy screwdriver to get to the two screws at the back of the door card which are behind the edge of the seat, I'd appreciate it. Got them out using a screwdriver socket and adjustable spanner, but its not working in reverse :shock:

and the stripes nearly match up!

all done by my own fair hand

now need to recover the bits that are still fuzzy red stuff, and then try, once again, to get some front seat covers in a matching vinyl, I need them to send me a couple of samples then I can order them. Must phone them next week. Also need to source different coloured sliding latches for the cupboards under the seat. Any ideas?

However, I am quite pleased with it all, I reused the foam from the seats, but covered it with wadding to make them softer, and I'm thinking about getting a memory foam mattress topper. Have managed to find one which is a perfect size :ok

Good work. Nothing beats the sense of pride when you complete a job yourself, does it?

What a lovely interior. I especially like the stripy fridge! I'm feeling inspired now :)

Thank you

Stripy fridge is just a spare piece of flooring stuck to the front once I'd take the hessian stuff off :D
