Thread: Need Interior Done in Dallas Texas... HELP

Tweet

I had a guy lined out with a agreed time line and price that was nailed down 3 weeks ago. Our budget was and is drained so we sold a mutual fund to afford this interior because this has become a huge part of our life and a very very important thing to do for her father. I have been working 16 hour days the last 3 weeks to get the cab and doors painted and on the chassis so I could take it to him by the 2nd week in August to do the interior. Earlier tonight I had an odd feeling and sent him a text just to make sure we were still good to go on the delivery of our truck to his shop. He informed me that he couldn't take in anything until November.....WTF? Here is the biggest issue with that. Our wedding is November 21st. Not a snowballs chance in hell of him finishing it by then.

So here is where I sit. I have a custom made seat frame that will be here next week. I have several sheets of aluminum that I bought for the interior guy to use that was at his request.



What I need:

Someone to execute the job that I can trust and won't rip my head off on the price.

Seat upholstered (I already have the simple design)
Door panels made and upholstered (I have this design also)
Carpet
Kick panels
headliner
rear cab surround


I don't want or need any super fancy designs in anything. Just nice crisp clean work. I'm very critical of most work. Especially sewing lines that are crooked, excessive gaps.... It needs to be done right!

I understand this might be asking a lot of someone, but I assure you the impact that you will have in our lives and our families lives will be HUGE.

Thanks all!

I can't guide you to anyone, but I'll offer that after living in a big city metro area for 35 years I think you'll have to take the truck to a smaller, more rural area or someone on the very extreme fringe area of the DFW metroplex to find what you want. For example Jack (HenryRifle) took his '33/34 up to south central OK to get his interior work done a few weeks ago. A good guy, working "reasonable" in a big city is soon over run with business, and raises his prices to control his volume.

Dan, I was given this company name in Denton-Mitch Henderson Xtreme Upholstery 214-551-1816. I haven't seen his work yet, but maybe someone on this site has. There is a Fort Worth company that sells upholstery materials that attends the Fort Worth Goodguys shows that should be able to recommend several shops in your area. I wish I could be more help here.

Mitch, doesn't have a interior shop, I have one of his cars in my shop now, And 2 more coming in from them. I would check at your cruise nights to see who is currently doing work, And ask around.
