hello all,

i'm after a trimmer that knows 60s minis (has patterns)...

i've got a '65 mini deluxe. original burgundy interior - pretty good nick, but one of the front seats has a tear. would like to get this either repaired or retrimmed to match the rest.

not looking to do the whole car at this stage.

any suggestions?

A good trimmer won't need the patterns -- they'll take what you've got and reproduce it..

You can always get Newton Commercial to send out new covers etc etc cant you?

Has trimmed many Minis to concours standard. Has his own patterns and knows the various models of Minis.

agree with the above choice....hes done lots of minis.....and most mini places will suggest them...

The Poms didn't make the trim in Australian Minis. Their vinyl won't match the Nylex stuff that was fitted to Aussie Minis.
You could use them to cover the seats but then they won't match the door trims.

thanks for that. i'll give them a bell.

agreed, any trimmer should be able to do it - if someone has the patterns already though, then it will be quicker ( = cheaper hopefully) for them to make it up.

yep. aus issue seats...

Can you let us know what you have done and how much it costs?

Cheers,
Mark.
