:: UPHOLSTERY & SEWING ::

3 X Show winning Van. Fully upholstered by Dan Gibbins in Cream Leatherette

Walls, half black Leatherette and half cream velor. Panels covered and affixed with stainless screws and cups for an old timely feel.




 The curves add a nice touch to the aesthetics

Covering the rear door unit.


Note: every screw set at the angle of twenty to two, as on the face of a clock



:: Awnings ::

We designed and stitched two models of awnings specifically for the T5 which we named the 'Cover up'. They stretch tight and use the tension of the door and the existing latches to secure the straps and poles. These functioned well in the inclement weather that we are so used in British summers!
