good point- If I were starting from scratch to find a good upholstery
shop, I would probably look for a shop that has been in business for a
long time & takes on the most difficult type of work, convertible
tops, custom interiors, restoration of vintage cars, etc.  Those volks
probably appreciate doing  what it takes to do really good work, &
dealing w/ volks that are vintage nazis' or are expecting the best??

As usual,

YMMV,
