I'm infecting the forum with it lol? Yeh that makes sense, maybe you can push the platform further and i'll stop posting? Stop dropping hints about 'maybe' doing the apr supercharger and just do it ;) ! The shells been painted for over a week and the interior is all done :) i'm just not posting any pictures of the car until it's all together and even at that it might only be snipets jules and Iain have seen pictures but only because I talk to them outside the forum. I've fell outta love with the forums and all the bullshit that surrounds them tbh

understand exactly where ya coming from.

I'm interested only because i'm a designer, not of car interiors, (commercial interior designer) but i like to see change, individuality and also quality and class...everything i lack in i suppose.

Looking forward to seeing the reliant interior in due course !
all the best

Sweet job, I'd love to have the skill to do car interiors etc. the interior IMO ties in really well with the colour of the shell. I said from the start I wanted oem with a twist and I think Bernard's done exactly that by using a contrasting stiching and stitch pattern to create that 'new feel' !

well it wouldn't be fair if you were an exception to the world of modifying and it was all straightforward, you need a few hic ups deviations along the way.

look forward to seeing it. :thumbs:

Bernie Newbury eh! The King of air-cooled veedub interiors for like 30 odd years.. total legend, he did some seat covers for my karmann ghia.

this will be awesome!
