Dear Lew & Group,
        We purchase most of our veneer for the MG facia panels that we make
from Certainly Wood in Buffalo,NY & thay are nice people to deal with.
FYI, the PA roadster has a bookmatched redwood burl facia panel & the BP
roadster has a bookmatched walnut burl facia panel. We can supply both
of them. Not sure exactly what a PB Airline Coupe should have & what it
looks like.
