This guy did a nice job putting a new top on my Spitfire.  In his 
shop were a bunch of high-end cars with upholstry work being done.  I 
intend to take him my GT6 seats eventually to see if he can create 
new side bolsters and seat pads.

The shop is right next door to Excel Automotive which does mechanical 
work on interesting cars including real nice lbc's occasionally.  
Around back of the building is a shop which specializes in Italian 
cars, started by the mechanics who lost their positions at High 
Performance Motors when Alfa and Maserati pulled out years ago.  Oh, 
and the old High Performance Motors building is right next door too, 
now the home of Aston-Martin of New England, also a purveyor of 
Lotus.  Spend a few minutes looking around.

And if you're free, I live not much more than 5 minutes by foot from 
there.  It would be under 5 minutes except that the railroad track 
and the brook are in the way so you have to walk around to the 
bridge.
