Local upholstery will end up in the 7000$ and up range. And the car have already passed 30 000$ just in parts and paint for the restoration

Well welcome to the world of car building! Hey Rome was not built in a day so just a few more thoughts on your interior! You could lay a horse blanket over the foam and call it a day! You would save TONS of $$$$ there! Or you can check out this Mac's Upholstery link: http://mactops.com/Rory 1934 Chevrolet Standard Holden Roadster new rebuild 1933 Ford 3 Window Coupe 1934 Ford Sedan new construction

I am aware of the cost of building a car, it is not the first project. Yeah I could put a blanket over the seats and maybe a bed sheet as headlining. I have dropped them an email and a couple of others ones aswell. Best thing if there is another company that have templates for 34 master and can make the interior and ship it.

Find out if it being purchased or how they will dispose of the inventory. Buy it all up. You could be rich.

most likely it will be auctioned off , either as a big lot or piecemeal. Your going to need to find out who is going to be conducting the disposal of the company's assets and how they are going to do it.
The chevrolet stuff we crave ( hampton coach division) was only a small part of their business. The Model A ford and V8 ford stuff is where the demand is and those vendors will be out in force looking for it.

If you are interested, and know an upholster, I have a roll of rose beige mohair, that I bought years ago for my 34 Master. The original mohair had a rose tint to it which I found after I had my interior done. I never did get it changed. The Mohair that I have come from overseas, I believe England. It is a lot thicker than the domestic stuff I had in my car. If you are interested I can take some pictures and send them., let me know. John (AirForce)

I say thank you for that, but I am going for the gray color interior like the car had original. But I would like good pictures of the interior in a 4 door 34 master. So I can see where the stiching goes and so on

A great resource for looking up suppliers is the Hemmings Motor News magazine. You can subscribe to the digital version and not have to pay for the paper version.
My 1951 1 Ton is now on the road! My 38 Master 4 Door is also now on the road .
