These photos show the development of the seating area to fit the owner's needs. Wood bases are cut for interior panels, arm rests, seat bases and backs. Varying densities of foam are used to meet the owners specifications. All foam will be contoured for maximum driving comfort before being upholstered with the finest leather. |  |
