I mentioned planning a write up on how I refinished the cracked dash in my
XJS. Well, I’ve finally done it. Here’s the website:

Good job on the site, Paul. Very logical, informative presentation.
Too late for me, I’m afraid. Recently installed new wood obtained from
Paul’s Jaguar and it looks showroom- just like yours.
I’m very much interested in your ultrasuede headliner project. I assume you
have the coupe, but I’m wondering if it could work on my convertible. I have
a roll of about 20 feet X 4 feet wide from a 20 year old abandoned project.
It’s very flexible and wears like iron, but it’s a little thick (1/16"?) for
a machine to stitch. Not sure. But they made sports jackets out of it, back
in the 70’s.
Keep us posted on you site updates.
Good luck,
