    I'm restoring my 78 512 BB, and regarding the seats, I can't find anyone that can do the holes in the daytona inserts exact. the embossing on the factory ones are so good it almost looks like a plastic ring. see pic. every aftermarket one I've seen doesnt compare. Any recomendations? thanks!

    Good day Mark,

    Check with Tappezzeria Luppi in Italy, as they make complete seats skins for a number of Ferraris including BB's. In fact I think they were the firm that originally made them for Ferrari. Their website is:

    http://www.tappezzerialuppi.com/profilo_uk.htm

    I contacted them a few years ago (2008) and the price was 1200 Euro for two seats with a 15 day delivery. In my case my seats were actually in excellent shape and so I decided to redye them first (which turned out excellent) and I did not like it then I would have went with the new skins.

    Cheers,

    Sam

    Tony Nancy may be able to help.

    He is considered the interior guy.
