|
|
I'm looking for this material to do the door and rear side panels of my 11e. I had the seats covered a couple years ago by Lennie (West Coast Classics). But the panels were never done (long story). The seat material was purchased from a European source. That source no longer has any of this color. Does anyone know of a source for this material? Or is there someone that has some that they would like to sell? These pictures were taken outside (natural lighting) both in and out of the sunlight.

There is no better source than Marcus

Unfortunately, he doesn't have this color in stock. I got the material with the car. The previous owner had bought the fabric from Marcus. I'm hoping we can find some somewhere so we can finish out this bug... _________________ Happy to be alive. Hey Dad, Mom, wish you were here to see all this.

Yes. Thank you for your suggestion. I looked this website. No matching fabric. _________________ Happy to be alive. Hey Dad, Mom, wish you were here to see all this.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have posted on the Facebook group. And I looked at Ricardo’s fabric listing and couldn’t find a match. _________________ Happy to be alive. Hey Dad, Mom, wish you were here to see all this.
