Avanti interior source needed

[mbstude]

Anyone know where to source the claret (red) and fawn vinyl for a ‘63 Avanti? Also need the salt and pepper carpet. Thanks

I’d like to avoid SMS, if possible.

Try Creative Auto Restyling, I think in St. Louis 314-423-6102. Her name is Barb.

Matt, the "Claret" Red was the darker red used in 64 Solid interior cars, not the red used in 63.

Matt. Jim is right on the 64 color. You should probably rethink that if you are actually considering claret. It is almost non existent in the upholstery grade and has been for years. It’s not one color but actually two as it has splatters of black within the maroon.

Claret would be a late color, and would originally have had the 64 style solid black carpet. I believe Barb said she can get the claret vinyl. I know she has the fawn. If you want the red and black carpet, contact me or Dave, and we'll get it for you.

Contact Mike Baker, he is the one who provides original carpet to the rest of the vendors.

My mistake on the color name, I’m not an “Avanti guy”. The car is a grey ‘63 with red/fawn interior.

Brad, I’ll give you a call next week. Thanks!

Might anyone have information on Creative Auto restyling in St Louis?
Indications are the proprietor has passed.

[lschuc]

Bill, Creative Auto Restyling is permanently as of Barb's untimely and sudden death earlier last month. Her son lives in Delaware and has closed the shop and there is no forwarding number.

[Bills R2]

What a drag.

I did sent a note of condolence and an offer to purchase any work of mine that had been completed.

While I did not know Her, I am sorry to hear of Her Passing. Great interior Craftsmen/women are hard to come by.

May She Rest In Peace.
