VERY INFORMATIVE BOOK

This was a great book with very good pictures. There were a lot of great tips from someone that has done a lot of upholstery work. I am not afraid to tackle my own project after reading this book. I did not need the sections about convertabile tops as I think this could be a seperate book in itself. I would of liked to see more supplier references in the resource section, but this may be a wholesale issue.

One of the best available

Whether you're an experienced upholsterer or someone new to the trade, this is a great guide. There are many excellent color photos and lots of detailed instructions on how to do what the photos show. This should be in every auto upholsterer's library.

The comprehensive guide to custom interiors.

A colour guide to customizing the interior of any vehicle.This book is a step by step guide(and in colour)from designing to completing your interior.Even though the book shows various hot rods the techniques apply to any vehicle.This is a comprehensive guide and is great value for the money.This should be your first book on customising interiors.There are plenty of books that cover other areas of car restoration to add to your collection. I also recommend this book: "How to restore and customize upholstery & interiors".By Dennis.W.Parks.(Motorbooks Workshop series.)

Probably the best automotive book I have ever read!

Yes, the best, bar none. If you're a veteran like me, there were probably guys in your crowd who could do engines, trannys, paint/bodywork, even a little electrical. But nobody, NOBODY had a clue on how to do the interior. This book reveals the secrets and the inside tips step by step, easy to follow, and yet, not tedious. Quite the contrary, it is an enjoyable read full of discovery. Even if you only have basic skills like cutting plywood with a saber saw, you can probably put together a great interior for your car armed only with patience and this book. And that goes for new cars too- the techniques are totally up to date. The fact that they are illustrated on hot rods doesn't mean they won't work on the latest models. You just have to be thoughtful and creative, and anything is possible. Most Highly Recommended.

great book

This book took a lot of the mystery out of building custom interiors for me (a beginner). It covers a broad range of things, from building seats and door panels to headliners. Check out the table of contents. The authors obviously work mostly on hot rods but you can apply this knowledge to building interiors for newer cars. It doesn't go into extreme detail, (it wouldn't really be feasible to do so!) but it delivers on it's promise. If you're into fiberglass interiors for the newer cars, you may want to try another book.
