I'm getting ready to have the upholstery done on my 901. I have lots of pictures of what needs to be and have gone to the Nethercutt where I was granted permission to examine their '31 sedan.

Two of the things I'm missing deal with the stitching on the headliner. These are 1) number stitches per inch and 2) the distance between the two rows of stitches.

Can someone out there provide me with some measurements?

Marty,

This should help with the upholstery. If you can't get the info you need from the pictures let me know.

Dave,

Thanks you sent me a copy of the PDF along time ago. It was hard to determine stiches per inch. Since then, I found an old piece of headliner from the car to use as an example.

Marty,
A few more showing the headliner and door panel stitching, with a steel rule.

Dave - thanks for the assist. I hope to have the interior done in the next month or so.

I'll post some photos afterwards.
