Interior trimming, carpet, vinyl info.
« on: Wednesday,December 23, 2020, 04:35:17 AM »
Hello, Would anyone be able to advise me on the correct colour and specification for an Oatmeal colour interior trim. I have a 73 TC and am based in the UK, thanks, RafM.

The car is a work in progress, where is the best place to add pictures?
I've also made a few videos which show how I have made adjustments to the panels whilst working on the bodyshell.

You can start a thread about your car in the garage forum and keep adding updates as you go along to document your restoration.

Looking forward to seeing pics and video!

It helps to see others making progress as some of us have a lot of work ahead of us!!

I think a thread about your car is better placed in the "Members Cars" forum and the "Garage" forum is more for questions but I realize that in practice, there is a fair amount of overlap between the two. Having said that, please don't consider those suggestions to be an edict from the forum police. They are merely suggestions.

You can attach photos to your posts (click on "Attachments and other options", then choose a file...). Pictures must be less than 1024MB. Here are instructions for resizing your pictures (http://www.lotuseuropa.org/LotusForum/index.php?topic=1379.0). Let us know if you have trouble as there are several ways to skin that cat.

There is also a Gallery section in the main menu above the forums. If you have a suggestion for a new section, you can drop a PM to Joe.

I know I speak for everybody on this forum, I anxiously look forward to learning more about your baby!
