Default Classtique Upholstery

Read about the LeBaron Bonney deal. Sent them an email a week ago asking about delivery times with no response. Classitque was mentioned on my request of an alternative. Has anyone actually purchased their product and either installed it themselves or had it installed? Quality, correctness etc. This is for a '31 AA CCPU with indented fire wall. Will never be judged in fine points, but I want it correct as possible. Especially would like to hear from restorations shops that might be familiar with the product they offer. The price is the same as LeBaron Bonney had on their complete interior, 640.00 plus shipping (seats and door panels)



also open to other alternatives, live in Floyd, SW Virginia


thanks for any and all help.

You owe it to yourself to look at their videos on you-tube. Very informative and the workmanship looks top notch imho.

I bought that kit from Classtique for my '31 CCPU. Good quality material and workmanship. I had it professionally installed. Very happy with it and will be going back to them for my coupe.

I highly recommend Classtique's upholstery.

The upholstery in my recently restored Victoria is a kit from Classtique. Classtique's material samples were the same thickness, color, weight and feel as those of Lebaron Bonney's samples. The fit of Classtique's kit in my Victoria is as good as the fit of the Lebaron kit in my Coupe. The 2016 price of the Classtique kit was less than Lebaron's kit. Customer service from Classtique was excellent.
The photos are of the Classtique kit I installed into my Victoria. Mike at Classtique gave me excellent customer service, and Elizabeth has an excellent video on YouTube about installing Classtique's headliner. The fit of the carpets are really nice.

Mike responds quickly with excellent material and workmanship. I had a slight problem do to a misunderstanding and I mailed a small piece back to him and it was corrected and return WITHIN A WEEK. You can't get an answer to a simple question from the other group PERIOD. Unless "I guess so is an adequate answer.


Go with Mike at Classique. NO, I do not have stock in his company if there is stock. LOL

That is understandable, and accurate statement because we all purchase our piece-goods material from the same company.
