I would suggest Jim Enger at Guy's Interior Restoration, 2016 NE Alberta, Portland, Or, 503-224-8657, I have seen very high dollar cars, 30's Packard,etc, being done there. Bob
Jim has done a couple cars for me over the years,one of the best and a honor to have him do it.............
Two thumbs up for Guys interior restorations. Guy Recordon is a fantastic dude. He just finished a Carson style top for Tom Black's new Cadillac custom. I try to find a picture. Sent from a pay phone
