I could ask Andy, who did my steering wheel and handbrake. Pretty sure he did Norm Shums custom leather interior on his maritime blue c4 lightweight. Have you seen the thread that used to be on rennlist?

No i havnt seen it Chris ill have search for it later on is he local N/E
 
The lad who did the trimming is called Andy, from Cheshire. I think he works for Bentley and trims in his spare time.

Search for Nski "project Amazon" thread on rennlist and take a look.

When I get the chance to pop round take a look at my steering wheel and handbrake and see what you think :)

Guy who sells the gear knobs is a chap off Pelican forum called Manuel. They cost $100 for balsa wood or similar. Exactly like the older Porsches. Feedback from other buyers is good :)

Keith,

That is a credit to you, absolutely amazing work, I can't wait to see it!

What are your plans for the seats?

Cheers,
Paul

Doh! I've just re-read this incredible thread again and I must have missed that first time around while I greedily gobbled up your info ha! :frustrated:

Sending you a PM.

Cheers,
Paul

Ian
 
Hi Ian,

This, not to be missed. historic racing and car show, it's a bigee :thumb:

Keith, let me know when you're going, I'll buy you a beer. I can only go one day though. Anyone else..... Ian??

Cheers,
Paul
 
Tempted. Anyone going on Sunday?
 
If there is a gang going ill go any day which day is best though ???
I went to the air show today (Sunday) and it was bad , hung around all day for some noise and one "modern" fighter turned up at 5 o clock to close the show , Sunday at the Sunderland air show IMO is just a second chance for the burger and ice cream lads to make some money as the entertainment was sparse and boring . Should have bought the program i hear you say :?

I've dropped you a PM Keithster :)

If you get the chance drop me your email addy and i'll send you pics of the balsa wood gear knobs.

Shame about the airshow being a bit naff on Sunday, at least you saw the euro-fighters closing the show (by the sound of it)! :thumbs: We popped down Saturday and it was cracking (other than the odd drunk pleb!)

Chris

Ian

Rock great Brian Johnson to race Mini at popular retro-flavoured motoring festival

As if there were not already enough compelling reasons to visit Croft Circuit's Nostalgia Weekend (2-3 August) with its irresistible blend of fast cars, wheel-to-wheel racing, vintage music and dress and fabulous funfair, a special guest is now set to rev anticipation into overdrive.

Legendary AC/DC front man Brian Johnson is a late addition to the sparkling Nostalgia Weekend line-up. The man famous for such rock anthems as 'Highway to Hell', 'Back in Black', 'Hells Bells' and 'You Shook Me All Night Long' will take to the circuit in the Historic Touring Cars class behind the wheel of a 1964 Mini Cooper that he purchased late last year after driving it in his television series 'CARS THAT ROCK WITH BRIAN JOHNSON'.

:sing:

Sent you a pm Keith. Can meet at Rockliffe Hall Golf Club for coffee or breakfast or both before we enter, it's only 5 mins from Croft entrance. Or can meet and drive straight in?

Cheers & apologies for hi-jack,
Paul :hijack:
