1983 Red Porsche 944 Did it come with tan leather interior?
Is it a special edition? Because I’ve searched the internet high and low and I can’t find another red 944 any year, with tan leather interior. Was the car re-painted? Any and all information would be lovely, I’m purchasing my new 944 this weekend. Well not technically new, but hey.
There were no special editions of the 944 in 1983 (which was the first model year for the 944). Guards Red was a standard color, and in many Porsche models is often paired with a tan leather interior (which was also a standard color option). From my personal experience, I think this could be the most common color combo for 944 models (and if not the most, certainly up in the top three).
And it is possible the car was repainted – any Porsche mechanic that performed a pre-purchase inspection should be able to tell you if that is the case, though if you want to double check yourself you can compare the paint code with the actual color (the original Glasurit code should be on a label under the hood, along with the car’s option codes and similar info)… check for signs of overspray or mismatching color under the hood. Another excellent check point is the paint inside the fenders – it should both match and have a rough textured finish (if this was ever stripped to be refinished, it is usually found to be smooth).

American Leather – Furniture Upholstering In The Usa
American leather is a rather loose term used to describe manufacturers of leather furniture based within and making leather upholstery furniture in the United States. It also could describe tanneries within the United States that process hides. In this article we’ll examine some of the process of tanning leather hides and the role of American leather manufacturers within this industry. We’ll also look at the relationship between American leather upholstery furniture manufacturers and tanneries from around the world.
Leather furniture has long been an established category of furniture since early leather tanneries processed hides for use in clothing, chair seating and other furniture applications. Upholstering leather to sofa frames has been well documented by European, Middle Eastern and Asian tanners and craftsmen over the centuries and leather hides have proven to be highly resistant to wear which makes them an excellent choice for uses in furniture. The nature of leather and that no two hides are identical makes them much sought after as each piece of leather furniture will be unique unto itself.
The process of tanning leather hides has indeed been around since ancient times when using such items as bark, wood, roots or berries would facilitate the tanning process. This allows water and moisture to be removed from the hide and makes the hide fibers in the skin tough and cements them together. Current tanneries make use of mineral tanning as well as other approaches in modern facilities where some of the techniques are similar but using new methods and applications for tanning. Desired finishes range from the hide being waxed, rolled, lubricated with oil or of course dyed.
There are of course manufacturers within the United States that make and produce American leather furniture. What is unique about these manufacturers is that they use American wood and materials to build their sofas, loveseats, chairs, recliners and sectional frames but source the leather hides from tanneries found throughout the world. They bring together old world tanneries and leather with modern frame designs and styles for a perfect blend of leather and frames. There are also American tanneries that process leather hides.
Omnia Leather, a furniture manufacturer in Chino, California offers over a dozen different types of leather grades. These include some that still feature hair on the hide as well as waxed leather. Also offered are a selection of dyed leathers in various hide grades are available as well from this manufacturer.
American Leather is the name of another US manufacturer who offer a line of sofa sleepers in addition to sofas, chairs, loveseats and sectionals. This manufacturer also offers various grades of leather hides sourced from around the world. They offer a selection of leathers from Elmo, which is among the oldest operating tanneries in Europe. American Leather manufacturers their furniture in Dallas, Texas.
In this article we’ve discussed American Leather as a broad term for both manufacturers of leather furniture and tanneries that operate within the United States. Leather furniture has taken on an important role as a category of furniture. Discussed was the process of tanning leather hides which has evolved from using simple materials such as bark, wood, roots and berries to taking modern approaches which include minerals and other techniques. Manufacturers in the United States producing American leather furniture offer a combination of domestic made frames with leather hides from all over the world from some of the oldest tanneries still in operation today.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
