I loaded up the seats and door panel and trunk panels and threw the wife and the dog in the Yukon and made a road trip to Ciadellas from SF Bay area. Got to meet Gina face to face ,between her and my wife they told me what color to use .Got a tour of the shop met all her workers, even got a couple of shirts out of the deal. I had them stich everything up refurbish the seats and send it back to me so I could install it. Gina and her sister couldn't be nicer, if you got the time to make the trip I highly recommend it. We squeezed in the grand canyon while there . She would send pictures as things were getting completed to keep me up to speed. If I do another car I will be making that road trip again without hesitation.

Slower than I'd like , but it's moving along. Got the engine done last fall and the chassis is assembled. Trying to get it fired up soon so I can forget about it and move back to the body to get it into paint. I thought it would be painted months ago. I have a few threads showing the progress.

Brian, that's a nice looking interior. What was their turnaround time?
I like your car too. My first 55 was a coral and gray 2 door sedan Bel Air like yours. I hated it then, painted it something else. But coral and gray has grown on me since then, times change.
I think when I dropped it off she told me 6 to 8 weeks before they could start which was fine with me because I was still doing bodywork and was in no hurry, then I started to get pictures of the completed door panels about 4 weeks later. Then she shipped them. I think when it was all said and done it took 7-8 weeks in total. Then this009.jpg massive box showed up with the seats and everything else inside ,merry Christmas to me.
