It could be Vinyl, leather or Velour. Most classic car interiors are usually retrimmed with original materials. Some exceptions are new owners who prefer leather or velour to the original vinyl.
In the hotter countries the vinyls become hot and make the passengers sweat. A nice set of cloth seat covers will fix this problem.
Bob Welcome recommends The Classic Car Centre and the Armor All Gold Coast 600 2010 Race and Rock Music Festival
Mike Love and the Beach Boys are coming to the Gold Coast 600 Race and Rock Music Festival in October 2010. Get your Tickets and Accommodation early or you may Miss out.
What better way to see all the V8 Race Car drivers than at the Gold Coast in October 2010. The Beach Boys will provide fantastic music and the Race Cars will keep the adrenalin pumping.
Don't forget to book your accommodation and tickets early.
Danielle Schuller the All Hours Glass Grid Girl will represent Rockhampton at this event.
What has happened to all the classic cars in general. The car companies are in trouble and they are selling cars which have no appeal. Bring back the fins.
Faith is the sense of life, that sense by virtue of which man does not destroy himself, but continues to live on. It is the force whereby we live.
Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910)
On the left we have the fantastic Ford Galaxie convertible which was won in a competition by Warren and his wife. See their "how we won the Southern Comfort Cruiser" story on the classic car articles page.
The next photo displays a 1929 Model A Ford rear seat. You can see larger photos of this car and its interior at the Model A Ford page.
On the right side we have a 1958 FC Holden Sedan front bench seat. See this seat and other interior pieces at the FC Holden Sedan page.

Wondering if you know anything about the HSV427 Monaro picture attached, apparently it just sold for $900,000.00 thought if true it would be a good indicator for my car, as it has similar specs.
Regards Bernie.

Restoration in General
Restorations of these cars generate a huge amount of interest amongst people of varying walks of life.
There’s nothing better than going to a car show or swap meet and swapping yarns with other enthusiasts, and finding out some more little bits of information about your classic. Then it’s off home to see if the information and or parts deliver the goods or not.
Some people know so much detail about certain vehicles that they are indeed experts in that field. Sometimes because of their knowledge they then become traders. It’s never dull to go to a classic car show and check out the vehicles on display. You just never know who you might see also.
