Not quite that easy I'm afraid Brian - there is hessian and wadding in the mix too, at least on the seat backs. Other remaining leather parts don't have it but it may have just fallen away over the years.

You must have read my mind Brian as I ordered one yesterday! I haven't heard back from Tony so I also had a go with my sewing machine on some scrap leather with making the seats in mind. When I tried it last time it ran away with the slightest touch on the pedal and was completely uncontrollable but...

I'm working on the door restraint straps that need to be re-made as the originals were split and beyond repair. The brackets were pretty rusty too. I cleaned the brackets up and sprayed them with my favourite chrome spray which has worked pretty well and is far more affordable than re-chroming. I ha...

I sent Tony an email today to see if he will take my seats on as a project. In the meantime I have been fitting odd bits of trim around the doors which includes adding some of the headlining fabric to the door reveals then re-fitting the original woodwork that I restored quite a while ago. I need to...

Looking really good Brian. I love this stage in a rebuild when most of the grubby, destructive stuff is done and its all about creating the final vehicle and every day is closer to getting her on the road.

You did a great job on the seats Brian! I will contact Tony next week to see if he will take the job on. The colours are original to the Six so far as I can tell from various scraps, so generally blue and grey which is quite classy. I'm enjoying getting stuck in again despite the cold in the barn, a...

A bit more progress on the remaining trim - I covered the wheel arches in leather and attached the re-covered arm rests to the side panels that I had made quite a while ago. I copied the shape of these panels from the original but it leaves a couple of tack heads showing so I need to make up a solut...

I posted the question but I'm afraid I haven't had any replies yet.

Nice job! Could you please let me know who did them? I wouldn't mind an idea of the cost too (in a PM if you prefer!).

Its on SORN at DVLA so probably locked in someone's shed; an appeal to the Facebook page will get you a wider audience. I'll post the question for you.

Everything looks perfect now Peter - Eye-Sweet as they say in boatbuilding circles: if it looks right it is right!

Looks great Peter!

I can't find an image to match it in the book i have on airline cars. The way the screen is faired into the scuttle is quite unusual.

Doesn't look like a Singer to me Mike. The Lemans and Nine Coupes have a different body shape.

It looks as if you have a decent workshop Mike so that helps!
