Thanks Lynton already noted that one but it would appear that they are only into leather goods & not rubber. LOL

If I find a location I'll let you know. There is a place in vic that do a lot of resto work but are "EXPENSIVE".

Mick's also a bit of a guru with L series motors, he had a very quick 1600 when I was starting out in the mid to late 80's.

            He's also a very nice guy, asked him about a dissy part I needed,& bugga me he gave me a whole 280Z

            elctrc one for free. His son Dave does great upholstery work & at a very reasonable price.

I too can vouch for Mick and Dave King. I've known them for years through Hills District Car Club.

If memory serves correct Mick's quick 1600 ended up with a rover V8 in it in the 90's. He know runs an early R30 skyline with a chev V8 in it in Khanacrosses  It's mental.

 

Anyway, Davo's company is called King Trim, His website is www.kingtrim.com.au and his Number is 0414 413 236.

Let us know how he goes with the wheel, I have a foam covered wheel I'd like to eventually get re-done.
