Topic: 42 Fordor Special seat fabric

  Fellow V8'ers, greetings from the other side of the pond.

I am having no luck trying to source seat upholstery fabric for a 1942 Fordor 'Special' sedan.

I have contacted the main interior suppliers ( LeBaron, Cartouche, SMS) and have drawn a blank.

The EFV8 41-48 resto guide describes the fabric as: 'Two tone taupe and tan striped boucle broadcloth with a red pin stripe. (M-16552-F).
Picture attached.

Unfortunately, my car seats were totally stripped bare by the previous keeper, so I don't have any samples for repro.

If anybody has any leads, or could help me get hold of a small sample piece, that would be a great help.
