Last post was july 2013, last update on the car was 2nd of januari 2012. I can't believe how time flies.

But never mind that old stuff. I've got some really old stuff:

LH Seat

How the hell do you get the seat cover off? Well, you need to slide it off.. (downwards) The picture below may come in handy for future jobs.

Seat back cover

In short: I worked on the D today.

On the plus side the original fibreboard seat back is still intact, most of them seem to have cracked by now.

[RobvdVeer]

Basically the seats are fine, leather is ok just a little tear in the shoulder. The foam is in excellent state but a bit smelly after 33 years.

Sweet! Finally I get to see some of your D:)
Black interior is always a treat. So are you sure you want to do that leather cover change by your self??? ;P
Aint nothing more frustration than that....

[RobvdVeer]

I'm doing it tie-rap zip style for the difficult spots like the headrest. I'm sure my dad will help out with thetough bits, just like he helped me to get the seats out and up into my appartment. Yes frustrating maybe, but so much more rewarding!

Great to hear you're doing a bit on the car there Rob, it's been too long!
