The Concours Penalty
Restoring a classic 1960s Jaguar or Mercedes to "concours" judging standards requires the exact interior materials. Modern plastic replacements lose points. Finding a set of original "New Old Stock" (NOS) burl walnut veneer requires tracking boutique European carpenters who occasionally restore tiny batches.
Scouring the Woodworkers
These batches are usually bought up instantly by professional restoration shops.
- Pattern Specificity: Track the exact wood type and resin finish required for your specific chassis year.
- Supplier Scraping: Monitor specialized European restoration sites for sudden inventory updates.
