4AD trunk upholstery

Post by kabu »

Hi All,

Yet another question and request for pictures. Has the 4AD trunk had some upholstery originally? If so, what surfaces has been covered and what type and color of material. I have no remains of any kind of trunk upholstery in my car.

I suspect that at lest the trunk lid had some upholstery sheet fixed on the inner surface of the lid. But was any other trunk surface covered with anything?

Regards,
Pekka

Hi

In the middle of a fire, at your house??? That sounds terrible, hopefully there is no major damage. A fire at their house is definately something that you really hope no-one has to experience.

A little backyard BBQ... http://www.singercars.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=545

only 100 houses have burned but 20,000 people have been evacuated... I kind of was one of them last night, we got a phone saying evacuate but the police said we did not have to...we packed and were ready to go in a few seconds notice.

Uh, so sad to hear about that kind of a situation. Especially sad for those whose houses have burned down but also also the ones that have been evacuated. Hopefully the fire gets extinguished soon. A good long rain would do good, but I guess that is not so common in southern California.

Stay safe, you, your family and your Singers.
