Hello everyone,

for my early 1949 I'm in need of the full upholstery. I've discussed the options with Marcus from Wagenmanufaktur. He checked it with the company and it is possible to reproduce it. The goal is to find enough people to create a new batch of approx. 100 meter. I'm think in the range of 10 persons, including myself. I think 7 metres is enough for one car (correct me if I'm wrong). Note: we will pay together for the batch. A down payment needs to be done first, before we can continue reproducing it. Please check the pictures to see if you have the same upholstery and you need a new set. This is only for early 1949 cars. So who's in, together with me, to make our cars as original as possible. Please respond to the poll or contact me.

No early 1949 owners in need of upholstery?

It looks like you are the only one.
Ask Corrien Maas, she also weaves upholstery for cars per meter.
There are a number of examples on her website.
