As the thread title, I need the services of a good coach trimmer to sew up two seam splits in old leather upholstery. Nearer to Diss the better but can travel within our area. Thanks.

Thank you, Howard Sands replaced the headlining in my Austin 12/4 a number of years back and I was impressed with his work. Tried to ring him a year or two ago but could'nt get hold of him at all, assumed he had moved on. I will phone him using the correct number this time!

Try these guys at Market Deeping, they supply all trim bits and although I'm not sure of they carry out the work, they will know loads of folks that can, good luck. www.woolies-trim.co.uk

Two I can recommend - both ex Lotus, both do top class work on modern and classic cars. first is Nick Fulcher , sorry don't have his number, but you should be able to find him in the phone book. Address is on New Road, Hethersett, Norwich.
The other is Graham Crummett, based just outside Wymondham. He has done several jobs for me, and other people I have sent to him. I worked with Graham at Lotus, always excellent quality of work, and very reasonable with his prices. You can get him on 01953 606936

Nick Fulcher did a re-furb on my Corrado leather seats a few years ago, very very good! Makes the convertable hoods for Spyker cars!
