Current Restoration Projects

1950 XK120 Roadster current projectlast updated May 3, 2012

My current auto upholstery projects include a 1952 Buick Roadmaster, 1961 Jaguar Mark 2, 1971 Lamborghini Miura SV, and 1992 Mercedes 500E.

My favorite is reupholstering a silver 1950 Jaguar XK120 Roadster. I love how this classic Jaguar has detachable side screens. So far I've finished reupholstering many of the original leather-trim parts, and will reupholster the canvas top, trunk, and carpeting.

December 2011: I reupholstered the complete interior of a classic 1955 Jaguar XK140 DHC while Steve's Jaguar Service in Los Angeles restored the exterior, engine, electrical, suspension, etc.

Our client - Hollywood movie star Harrison Ford - chose Jaguar's factory auto upholstery colors: British racing green exterior and bisquit interior.

As you can see from my before-and-after gallery pictures, she turned out to be as beautiful as my 1956 Jaguar XK140 interior restoration.

When Harrison picked up his Jag, he was extremely satisfied with the final results and that made me very happy too!

Working alongside Jon Pollock Restorations in Los Angeles, I restored the full interior of this exotic and super expensive 1971 Lamborghini Miura P4OO SV in 2002. Formerly owned by Hollywood movie star Nicholas Cage, this Lambo is extremely rare. Only 150 were built from 1971 to 1972.

I fully restored her original black interior with only the world's finest leather and fabrics, per Mr. Cage's request.

While this Lambo has changed owners several times since 2002, she's still a show car winner for her gorgeous McLaren Orange exterior color and stunning black interior.
