So, there have been some interesting developments here at the shop. You may have seen the HOLYSHITORANGE !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! we did yesterday. It got straight black leather. You'd think that the person who bought that car would at least get some orange top stitch or two-tone inserts or something...

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Anyway, last week was interesting. I misjudged the size of our garage door in relation to a customer's Toyota Tundra and did $1600 in damage to the bed of that truck. I was worried about the state of my jerb because I don't hit 90 days until the middle of next month but the GM and Ops manager said everything was OK.

Monday, UPS was missing three leather kits and we had to rearrange our schedule.

Yesterday, one of our drivers took the morning shit-talking too seriously and sucker-punched our lead sunroof technician. He has a fractured jaw and our schedule is fucked up again.

Today, the packages that were promised Monday were tracked to Greensboro. They were supposed to be in Charlotte, Monday Morning. I've been cussed out by two dealership guys today. But, as of right now, the week is officially half-over.

Thanks for reading my bitching. Have a good week.

I watched my boss tear a fender off a dually backing out of a garage. He said i didn't tell him to stop. The radio in the car was on, his window was up and I was jumping and yelling at him to stop. He walked away swearing to himself. The worst I did personally was accidentally drill through a fuel line on a f-350.

So, do you work in a custom shop? That does interiors? Leather interiors?

Well I do much like helping fellow Oppos and their businesses, and CST has a shop of sorts here in Denver. May just be checking y'all out in the near future for fresh leather in my SPG

What year SPG? CST does prefab kits that can be made to order based on factory-style patterns. We have some 80s Saabs but only 2-door 900s available.

Pattern 151704 is for the 86-87 900 2-door

Pattern 309708 is the 88-92 900S,

310300 is for the 88-89 with solid rear bench seat. I don't know if they'll fit yours, though.

It's an 87 2 door, folding rear seat. I think the seats were the same from 87-89, I could be wrong though
