At Kenneth Michaels Coachtrim, hand-stitching is not just a skill; it's an art form. This section explores the reputation of the company and provides a behind-the-scenes look at the expert craftsmen who bring luxury car interiors to life.

The Timeless Pursuit of Preservation


In an era defined by automation, true craftsmanship has become rare — and that rarity is its greatest luxury. At Kenneth Michaels Coachtrim, craftsmanship is not a lost art — it’s our signature.

Every stitch, every seam, and every contour reflects our belief that excellence is not manufactured; it’s created.

For decades, our craftsman have been entrusted by collectors and connoisseurs to restore and reinvent interiors for the world’s most iconic marques — Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche. We don’t replicate perfection. We build it by hand.


The Legacy and Philosophy Behind Automotive Interior Restoration


Before cars were mass-produced, they were coachbuilt — shaped by artisans who treated every surface as a canvas. At Kenneth Michaels Coachtrim, that legacy continues. Each restoration is a dialogue between heritage, innovation, and the timeless pursuit of perfection.

Our work honors the traditions of the past while elevating them with modern precision — the essence of true automotive interior restoration.

Defining Craftsmanship — The Kenneth Michaels Standard


Craftsmanship is more than execution. It’s philosophy.At Kenneth Michaels Coachtrim, every project is guided by four pillars:

Precision

Every panel, seam, and curve must meet exacting tolerances — not only visually, but structurally. From F40 bucket seats to Porsche 911 dashboards, our standards are absolute.

Patience

Excellence takes time. Each detail is hand-finished, evaluated, and refined until it meets our signature balance of form and function.

Authenticity

We source authentic materials — from Italian hides to period-correct textiles — ensuring originality in both feel and integrity.

Artistry

Beyond restoration, we design. Our interiors are composed, not assembled — guided by the same creative energy that built the icons we serve.

The use of authentic materials is crucial in maintaining the integrity and value of classic Ferraris. This section delves into the sourcing process and the attention to detail that goes into every stitch.

Where Heritage Meets Innovation


The art of craftsmanship doesn’t resist technology — it masterfully directs it.We integrate modern precision tools and digital modeling with traditional hand techniques to achieve results that surpass factory finish.

From hand-matched leathers for Ferrari Testarossas to bespoke Alcantara finishes for Lamborghini Aventadors, our process bridges eras — timeless artistry enhanced by modern mastery.

The Craft Behind the Machines


Every project that leaves our atelier carries the imprint of human hands — the fingerprint of excellence.

Ferrari

Authentic racing heritage, restored with the finesse it deserves. From F40 seat materials to 812 Superfast interiors — we combine purity with prestige.

Lamborghini

A symphony of design and drama. Whether it’s a Countach restoration or an Aventador personalization, our craftsmanship amplifies the spirit of Sant’Agata.

Porsche

Functional beauty at its finest. From 911 classics to the latest GT models, we tailor interiors that embody Porsche’s timeless engineering soul.

Each brand demands a different language of design — and we speak them all, fluently.

Why Craftsmanship Still Matters
