Hi John People around the world have undertaken some amazing modes to this model, building them up to an amazing standard,as a model there are some things that are just not correct, like the seat that are just a black plastic molding, so some people, including myself have covered the seats in leather, and things like the dash top and door panels,fitted carpet and hood lining
Here is a photo of what I am doing with my seats at the present Regards Markson

I have done hood linings on the real thing.Generally hood linings that glue to roofs require upside down work. I have many real things in my workshop, but no Astons.

That looks very impressive, nice work. One of my favorite cars since seeing James Bond movies.
Is that a "Superleggera" batch on the bonnet ?
