I love classic cars and would not
dream of cutting the back off a restorable car! This car based sofa is made from the
back of an old Mark 3 Ford Zodiac Executive. It has a welded steel box
section frame and tube legs. The feet will not dig into or scratch flooring
as it has rounded edged plastic feet, two of which are adjustable. The rain gutters are removed
from the boot and sheet steel is welded in to give sides to the seat.
Chrome and trim are removed whilst work is carried out and all welding
on the outside is ground down and smoothed with body filler. Restoration
of the car is completed as necessary in welded steel which is then carefully
filled and smoothed before painting can take place.
This sofa is painted in red metal flake, but
alternative colours can be requested. An original luxury leather Jaguar car rear
seat is used, making these sofas very comfortable. The leather seating
is finished by a professional upholsterer. Prices would vary depending on the availability of
the car and the work involved. New or re chromed bumpers and light units
could be fitted for a further cost. This one is shown without its rear
bumper, which is to be re-chromed. They are made to fit through a standard
house door!
Car sofas can be made from specific makes and models of car,
classic or otherwise. If you are the owner of a classic car which is sadly
beyond restoration but holds a place in your heart why not get in touch
with a view to my creating a piece of one off and individual furniture
for you from it.
