Chevrolet C10 Truck Full Retrim

Chevy C10 Truck - Full Interior Retrim

He's back! Dougie returns with another one of his projects, this time a Chevrolet C10 truck from across the pond.

Unlike most trim shops, we offer more than just craftsmanship, we can bring your vision to life before the vehicle even comes to our HQ. Our "render to reality" service lets you see realistic Photoshop mock-ups of your desired interior. Below, you can see Dougie's Chevrolet C10: from when it arrived, to what was agreed prior to the retrim... after many variations. This idea did have us questioning Dougie, "are you sure you want the entire thing retrimmed in this Ostrich leather?" and he stuck to his guns and was adamant he wanted everything as specified in the render/brief.

Once the C10 made it to d:class, we photographed and filmed the "before" shots as we knew the results would be a huge change. An amazing truck to start with, but time to make it more unique and bespoke to our customers requirements.

For this project, we worked with our good friends at UK Hide. They offer a whole variety of extraordinary and remarkable leathers, alongside their amazing nappas and grained leathers which we usually use. This journey began when Dougie came to us with his idea, but was unsure on colour. He requested a distressed leather, similar to his W108 we retrimmed, but brown this time. Torn between which shade of brown, we eventually whittled it down to two shades, a light and a dark brown. The next request was he wanted it to look like Ostrich leather, which is very different to your normal automotive leathers. UK Hide were able to get the chosen leather debossed, making it look like Ostrich leather. The team at UK Hide really are a delight to work with and the results speak for themselves. Simply the best.

Another wild spec is the "carpets" for this truck. We tried offering Dougie some box weave carpets amongst other common ones we normally use, but as you can imagine there's a pattern forming here... if its common or the "usual", Dougie was not interested. Resulting to probably the most rogue request we have ever had for carpet, Seagrass weave carpets. To you or me, we would probably assume this material would be used for picnic baskets, and probably is. That aside, we made it work and got it laid down with some matching Ostrich leather binding.
