    Brett,
    I sat across the table from you at the last FOG X-mas party...Anyway, another option for you to repair your 360 dash would be at Frank Zucchi restoration in Livermore (not that far from you). Frank did some restoration to my F355 seats and dash a few years back and it is holding up quite well. Home

    BAD experience at FZ...that is why the dash is damaged. He let it sit in July sun for 23 days, wouldn't even look at it once I told him of the problem. Had to sue him....and won.
    Watch out for that guy....

    wow...sorry to hear about that. My car was there for only a week or so, so I guess I was lucky. I can't really say anything bad about my experience, but that really sucks what happened to you.

    I'd second Cooks in RWC. Owner is a very personable guy and the restorations I've seen in there over the years are stellar.

    I can recommend Advanced Interior Restoration Services. They (Tom Hatfield) are a well known and do concours-grade work.

    I had my Ferrari 308 interior restored by them in 2013 and remain very happy. They replaced (re-carved) the foam rubber and replaced the Connelly leather on the left side of my driver's seat, stripped the dye from the entire interior and replaced it with matched "factory" dye. I had removed the interior myself (seats, tunnel, door cards, etc) and Tom picked up and delivered to my house. He also steam-cleaned all interior fabric (e.g. headliner) and carpets while at my house.

    I also recommend Advanced Interior Restoration Services. I had the same work done as Brian A on my 328 in August and received a Platinum award at Concours in September.

    Over many years & many cars I have seen many different levels of leather work done, and I generally recommend Nick Kollias, 510-220-0969 for restoration/dying work. One time I needed a small job done, and he asked if I could bring it to a dealership where he was working. He was working on the seats of a 5 +/- year old convert. It scared the hell out of me. The seat he had done looked brand new, but the one he hadn't touched showed how bad a neglected seat really is.

    When I looked at Advanced Interior, I thought they might be even better. FWIW, Franzini has worked on some of my cars, and I would rate them as 'Good, Not Great'.

    Take it Tony @ T&R in San Francisco. A few years back he redid my dash on my 575M. Absolute perfect and meticulous job on both the disassembly and reassembly.

    Your 360 will be in good hands at T&R.
