Hello,
I have a '74 signal orange car with brown interior. The PO cut the doors for speakers and I have been searching for a source for the brown basket weave vinyl so I can recover the panels. The COA states the color is brown. Has anyone found a source? Thanks, Jack |

The VW fabrics are similar and in many cases seem to be identical. Probably the biggest classic bug supplier is TMI, at www.tmiproducts.com And as a bonus you can ask online and they'll send you a free sample swatch to see if there's a match.
Here's a brown basketweave (for example): (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.tmiproducts.com-2618-1440899194.1.jpg) And tan squareweave: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.tmiproducts.com-2618-1440899195.2.jpg) The whole "swatches" page (dozens and dozens): http://www.tmiproducts.com/swatches.html Don't be too put off by the colors, computer screens don't give a good representation so you need a sample. What's nice about TMI (my opinion) is that their prices tend to be a fraction of the cost of the "original" fabrics from some other suppliers. If you have a budget and concours correctness isn't a priority then they're a nice option. Worth a free swatch and a quotation to find out, anyway. |
