Aircooled VW South Africa

Finally Bugger's dashboard for the sunroof squareback is finished.

It is covered in leather with french stitching in blue to draw the colour scheme of the body into the interior.

We decided to use leather for the sake of appearance as well as the tactile sensation. On this piece the leather is a bitch to work with as it cannot stretch like vinyl does.

The speaker area was filled in with a special flexible filler with some fibreglass reinforcement

Special templates had to be made for the instrument binnacles. (A couple of cows were sacrificed in the process)

This is the end result





We will supply a special leather muti to protect the dash from damage and to ensure a long service life

Wow! That looks so much nicer than the stock dash

Can you offer this service in other materials as well?

You do fantastic work Johann!

Do one for the Buggy,pretty please!!!

Man that work is F#cking amazing.....

The instrumant section reminds me of a C-cup..... Speaking of which can you make leather underwear for the seatcover??

It all depends what you have in mind, Blitz, but we can talk.

Chris, if you can supply me with a base, we can "maak 'n plan"

Vader, first we have to make a template off the base, then do a rough fit, then a final trial and then the final fit. The problem is this; the first time I can explain to the "keeper of the wrath of the gods" that is just business to fondle the squishy bits of your seatcover, but by the third time she would have seen through my ploy and then the damage of Huricane Katrina would look like the vloermoer of a naughty 4 year old compared to what she would do to me. So in the interest of my longevity, I must decline

What more can I say? It looks F@#@$#*@ amazing! Bugger, I'm so jealous right now.
Congrats! The squarey is going to look stunning.

I just won't send it via PO!!

That does look great. Nice work.
One day when I get my Notch...

Right,

What's your charge? I definately want the dash for my notch done.

Although Vynl would suit my just fine, I don't have an issue with leather.

Yep, please post price for us. I also want my Notch's dash done... Red stitching, black leather, matt finish.

Beautiful work there.

A dash like bugger's can be done in two weeks (Now that the development of templates is done)

In leather with the stitching in a colour of your choice - R4000
In vinyl with similar stitching - R3300

Very nice work.....the stiching will compliment the car.....Looked like you on Jukebox Johann.........

Once again Thanks Johan for the hard effort that has gone in to this dash

You guys do not know what the poor chap has gone through for me and at the end of the day this dash
is done at a very high standard and to do that stiching is no easy task

You guys can be asured if you Give Johann something that only the best will be done with and to it
