Upholstery Needs

WE ARE LOOKING FOR AN UPHOLSTERY PARTNER

TO FINISH THE UPHOLSTERY ON OUR '67 CORVETTE RESTOMOD

Doug & Glenda McMahan - macsvettes@gmail.com - 682-305-6649

We are several years into our '67 Corvette BBC Restomod build

it was purchased after being used as a dedicated drag racing Corvette for over 35 years

We separated the body from the frame on 5/6/2020 - over 6 years of time, money & blood, sweat & even a few tears since

Due to several life-issues, this project was delayed by a year and our new target is mid-February 2027; for a large indoor Corvette Show in Galveston

We do have it painted - 100% House of Kolors, black, then blue w/metalumes, then blue/purple colorshift pearl, then white diamond and HOK Show Klear

Freshly Cleared - House of Kolors Show Klear

the Seat Humps before any cut-n-buff

close - still needs a final cut-n-buff

we are in the assembly phase - readying it for Upholstery. This Restomod has more than 74 custom one-off parts, and numerous modified parts

INTERIOR STATUS

We need Custom Door Panels, Console Between Seats, Rear Compartment Console, Dash Pads, C6 Corvette Altered Seats, Engine-Compartment Actuator Covers w/boots need full upholstery.

We have chosen two-tone gray with with a special accent piece down the center of the seats, consoles & door panels.

To date, we have carpeted and upholstered many of the non-sewn type parts.

The console between the seats w/hinged lid

Armresets extend up into the dash pad edge

Seats are heated w/lumbar support

The factory foam needs sectioned or totally replaced

The factory foam also had pockets for side-air-bags that will not be utilized

The C6 Corvette Seat Tops have been lowered to not stick up so high in the Convertible. We would like the tops contoured more like the hump shape

Seat top (modified frame) with seat tilted, is almost matching the hump

Seat Switch Panels & other Misc Parts have been covered

we have played with a few ideas on the door panels - definately open to any ideas you might have

REAR COMPARTMENT & CONSOLE, WITH ACTUATOR COVERS

the rear console needs padded and stitched similar to what gets done on the front console

The compartments and their lids have been carpeted

The deck lid actuator / hinge covers were padded & covered with boots covering the hinge

we need boots (very similar to a shifter boot) to cover the actuator & hood hinges

The soft top is a NEW factory frame - brand new along with all new rubber

we would typically order an Al Knoch soft top kit and have it installed. We would like the top stayfast fabric to match the interior in some fashion
