Collected the upholstery from Trimmania this afternoon. They've recovered some parts, covered some for the first time, (trimmed the inside of the storage box & glove box), & added piping around the edge of all the panels to close up the gaps between panels & bodywork in the cab.
Cost a fortune, (more than I paid for the Pop originally), but hopefully it's sorted now. The upholstery guy I used for more than 35 years has retired. He just worked from a garage at the end of his garden, whereas Trimmania have workshop overheads, wages etc to pay, so are bound to be more expensive. Nice job though.
Now in storage in the new lock-up until I've finished messing with the cab.

If you go to one of the self storage units you can rent to put stuff in you can normale buy bubble wrap from them, wrap your parts up in that.
that will keep them clean and also add a bit of protection.

Hadn't thought of that Merv. Probably cheaper than renting a garage |

Just cover them with an old blanket or a dust sheet.

The lock-up's aren't damp, but worth protecting the panels till I need them. Thanks.
