Wow! The most impressive pictures I ever seen on
Ferrari restoration. Thank you very much. It's in my favorites
forever.

For the interior carpet
pieces, I went with carpet set from this guy in Belgium... I'll have to
see if I can dig his name up.
For the non-carpet pieces
(like your black board), I got heavy weave fabric (like the race car seats)
and just recovered everything. Mine too had lighted significantly
with age then someone sprayed them with paint or dye then they faded
again.

Yes, that is the piece.

Long black board - - - the
thing that’s split into two parts and the middle seam is covered by
a strip about an inch wide? Horizontal shelf thing?
Should also have two little snaps on it. Is that the
piece?

Thanks for all the tips.
These will be very useful.
But I still don't know how to get
out the long black board that goes over the edge of the carpet
behind the seats. I want to make it VERY black again.

Get some 3M Hi-Strength 90 Spray
Adhesive. Spray it on both pieces (wall and carpet), let it tack
up for 10 minutes then press into place. I've used this on the
interior of my airplane and it is holding up well on the
soundproofing and carpeting. The regular 3M Super 77 Spray
Adhesive is not as strong.
I did this job on my 328 and
400i years ago. You normally use commercial or industrial spray
glue (contact glue) from an aerosol can. Very common to get over
here from auto supply stores. It's made for car trimming. For
most car trimming supplies you can check out Woolies here I the
UK who are the standard for interior car trim. I know that may
not help you guys in the USA causing shipping costs can be high
but at least the exchange rate is good for you right
now!

I’d
also be interested in hearing what you guys come up with. The
hood liner in my TR has been falling off for a year or two. It
has the same ancient foam under it. Like Peter, I’ve tried
gluing it back, but the foam residue just keeps separating. I
can take it all the way off and clean the foam remnants off
the underside of the hood, but I don’t know if I can “restore”
the original fabric and re-use it, and I don’t really know how
to get it properly glued under the metal cross braces under
the hood, which is a little harder than the carpet
problem.
Does
it look like the carpet would have had a thin layer of foam
behind it? This is happening to the trunk carpets on my GT4,
especially the two panels underneath the trunk
lid.
No
matter what I've tried, it still peels off and the culprit is
that degrading layer of foam (or whatever else it is), nothing
seems to want to stick to it. I've tried to scrape as much of
it off as possible (near the edges where it's peeling off),
but it looks like I need to completely remove the carpets and
re-glue.
I'd
like to hear suggestions as to what glue to use.
My
'wall carpet' behind the seats is falling off. I guess the
glue has dried out. And I noticed the material between the
carpet and the fire wall is also loose. It looks like I need
to take the 2 seatbelts screws off to take the carpet off. Has
anybody done this before ? How about the black board behind
the seats, how do I take that off. I want to paint it or do
something to get it black again. The sun has done some damage
to it. It's pretty greyish now.
