Mercedes-Benz C107 450SLC

Harry Pitcher • March 2, 2022

This Mercedes-Benz C107 has undergone a huge restoration. The customer has spared no expense getting their beloved 450SLC to a showroom condition. The majority of this restoration has been created by our neighbours at Multi-Tech Coachworks for the unbelievable paint job. During this process we were tasked with retrimming the front seats, rear seats, boot carpet, rear parcel shelf and installation of a variety of new rubber sills.

We started off with removing the carpets, we done this so we could install some new sound deadening from Dynamat. This helps minimise any road noise and stops causing resonance and vibration. The original carpets were then professionally cleaned as they did not require retrimming due to their excellent condition.

Now for the main part of any retrim, the seats. Parchment grained leather has been used for these, including the front armrest. The seat centre flutes are also parchment but have been perforated to OEM specification. The seats prior to the retrim were in good/okay condition, nothing particularly wrong with them but had definitely seen better days. When going this far with a restoration it is hugely beneficial for the interior to be tip top.

This Audi R8 Spyder came to d:class for a steering wheel and gear selector retrim. Our customer didn't like the OEM Audi wheel as the perforated leather was not to their taste. After visiting our HQ and exploring options, the decision was made for black Alcantara and OEM red Audi stitching. The OEM wheels have a 'Baseball' stitch style, which our customer also didn't like, so they have opted for the popular 'link' stitch.
