    Some lovely cars there. I'm glad to see the cloth beach seat covers I had made are faithful reproductions to the original. Did you have a test sitting on it? They slide as soon as you try to sit down as the fixings are useless. They look great when stationary though.

    I had those put in to mine (same fixing straps that were used on the Sebring tonneau for the GTS). The top and side straps work reasonably well but the ones for the front section of the seat have nothing to bend around and hold on to I found.

    Thanks Matthias!!!

    It was really a nice end to our European travels with #00962 to win the Dino class, Salon Prive was a really fun and very fancy event in a beautiful location with many nice cars, owners and friends.
    The level of attention to detail and organization at this event was first class, they really thought of everything right down to the detail service where a small army of detailers would come and do a last minute check and clean of your car, or Richard who was assigned to our group to help and would get you a coffee or champagne or anything you needed...
    It wasn't without some last minute issues as this was our first concours, Rob the detailer at UCC in the UK did a fantastic job cleaning the car up after the trip for the 50th in Maranello. He pulled alot of bugs out of the headlights.
    I really liked the touring day on the Wednesday before the concours, over 100 miles through the Cotswolds on a perfect English summer day!
    cheers Andrew
