This appeared on my book face. I guess it's not so much borrowed from another make as just not usually found on this type of car. Made me make involuntary noises though. Sent from my shower using proboards

Not sure which cars to bring. White Monza might be ready. Will leave green car at home, redpinksilver Monza won't be finished/started, Senator has an MOT before the event..... that'll be fun. Other white Monza would take a momentous overhaul to be ready and other other white Monza might arrive just for Sunday. Sent from difficult choiceland using proboards

Not sure on collection of super-top-secret project-brain-melt either.

Monkeys have been in this car (back on topic) How much effort does it take to remove these? See here the difference between Opel Polar White and what I imagine is Electrolux Fridge White.... ....and here... Overall it is a good car, it's just that many parts have been ruined by monkeys. Monkeys.

So. With a Saturday afternoon at my disposal, I've pulled the drivers seat out for some titivaterising. The outer side of the base needed the cushion fixing before the frame wire through the fabric. Thanks to Recaro this is a 5 minute job. Too quick for me to take pictures! After some maskery I dyed the seat fabric. See the difference. Much nicer. Seems to take to the velour absolutely fine. Fingers crossed. Sent from my cup of tea using proboards

Hello. Yes I did dye the velour and it seems fine. I'm fortunate to have many GSE seats so if it does go tits up it won't be an issue.
I have used a trade aerosol dye. Two coats seem sufficient. Better than the badly sun bleached velour.
Sent from I hope it works using proboards

I have, amongst many other things, been doing sprucing upping. The seat on the left has had a clean and brush and a bit of dye to help bring back the colour. Will do drivers seat tomorrow. Meanwhile, in the cave... Many choices. Much Alpine = happy MonzaPhil. Sent from my cave using proboards
