Topic: '40 Ford Interior


mdsbob    -- 04-14-2020 @ 10:40 AM
  With LaBaron Bonney now out of business I'm interested to find out sources of interior kits and /or fabric.
I am trying to help a friend who has a '40 DeLux Coupe that has a LaBaron Bonney interior but moths have eaten some holes in the mohair on the door panels.
In no particular order here are a couple questions:
Who the supplier of LB's Mohair material was/is?
Did patterns and material inventory get sold?

Thanks,
Bob

  IMHO the fastest and less costly option is to find an upholstery shop that does Antique cars and see if they can match the door panels. There are several sources of mohair material for the panels and all of them probably are different than the older Lebaron-Bonney.

  I have a lebaron bonney interior that I am not going to use. It maybe useful for your friend?

  Your friend might try Bill Hirsch for fabric. www.hirschauto.com
