Hood ornament + upholstery

[Philippe Courant <accf-club@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Anders (& list)
My '57 had also the optional hood ornament but it was so pitted and 
pierced that i need to use as template to make a new. The job was made 
in Spain and the result was very good (see 
http://www.ifrance.com/c-i-f/57hood-ornam.htm but forget the text, it's 
too late..).
The only drawback ; it's so sharp that it has made holes in my new 
cover.. I now put a cap on it !

About upholstery, try Gary Goers, he made my complete upholstery with 
the correct die-heated "crown" and "linear" lines. Expect to high price 
and  delay but the job is fantastic.
