[Healeys] Victoria British leatherette/vinyl

[Charlie Baldwin]

LeBaron Bonney in the USA has a large selection of upholstery materials with online ordering available.  They can also send samples to check to see if they match.

I remembered their name from having a subscription to Hemmings some years ago, so checking out Hemmings may yield other sources.

I’d like the material to match, but it appears the vendor [Victoria British] does not sell the material by the yard, and a call to them indicates they refuse to pass on supplier information.
