Restored leather interior of a classic car by epico.ch SA automotive upholstery

Automotive upholstery

Interior restoration for classic cars

We source period materials and use period techniques where they genuinely add to the car. The rest comes down to a level of detail you don’t notice at first glance — and do at the second.

Traditional car upholstery

  • Seats in leather, Alcantara, synthetic leather or cloth
  • Steering wheels retrimmed in leather or Alcantara, old covering removed
  • New headlining
  • Moulded carpets and sound deadening
  • Original hoods, faithful reproductions or new designs
  • Tonneau covers and pick-up bed covers, design included
  • Door cards, seat backs and armrests retrimmed
  • Dashboards covered in leather or Alcantara
  • Motorcycle seats, embroidered to order
  • Tilt frames for trailers and vans

Full restoration, start to finish

On full projects we take on the project management. We work with mechanics and body shops that specialise in historic vehicles and coordinate the stages so you are not chasing four suppliers: the result meets the car’s technical specification and protects its historic value.

While work is underway you can follow progress remotely through a private webcam, and if you wish the car can be tracked by GPS.

Marques we work on regularly

Porsche, Ferrari, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Volkswagen, Mini, Fiat. The list is indicative: our experience covers any project, including cars with no factory documentation and complete ground-up rebuilds.

We collect the car

With plates or without. We run flatbed trailers with a 5.5 × 2.2 m deck, 2,580 kg payload and a tilting platform — suitable for lowered sports cars and damaged vehicles — plus fully insured trade plates.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work to concours-correct originality?
Yes, that is our default approach: we source period materials and reproduce stitching, piping and quilting to factory specification. Where a material is no longer available we propose the closest alternative and put it to you before we proceed.
How long does a full interior take?
Generally four to ten weeks, depending on material availability and complexity. We give you a realistic window with the quote.
Do you work on motorcycles and modern vehicles?
Yes: motorcycle seats with custom embroidery, trim for modern vehicles, motorhomes and caravans, and bound carpets made to measure.

Have a restoration project?

Send us a few photographs of the interior and the model: we will tell you straight away what can be saved and what needs remaking.
