Hudson Valley Auto Interiors

Preliminary fitting of seats and door panels for a 1965 Lincoln Continental. I'm feeling pretty good as they were totally shot when we started.

Yesterday was certainly a tow-rific Tuesday here at HVAI. First we bid temporary adieu to this 1937 Dodge D5 sedan. We gutted the interior and shipped it out for the necessary body work. Once it’s done there, we will get it back and lovingly restore the interior to its original glory. Nothing exists in a vacuum: the 1965 Lincoln Continental finally made its reappearance! It’s been at the mechanic for months, and we were happy to get it back for the rest of the interior work ...it needs. We will be installing a new convertible top and carpets, and executing the final assembly for the seats and door panels that we restored last spring. We’re excited to start this next phase for this ongoing project! We also installed a new convertible top on an Audi TT, and one of our great customers stopped by in his 1948 Chevy Fleetmaster for a fitting for his new driver’s door panel. In between all of this action, Greg somehow found the time to continue sewing cognac leather Mercedes 280 SL seat covers for one of our ongoing restorations. There’s rarely a dull moment here at Hudson Valley Auto Interiors. See more

Just finished: new carpeting throughout, and new fabric on the front and rear seats of this rare 1961 Cadillac DeVille. It was quite a feat to track down the original cloth, but we found it and the owner is very happy.
