Upholstery supply if SF East Bay Area (Danville)
 

I would like to find a source for the chicken wire and padding that is used for installing a new roof on my 31 Coupe. I have the fabric. Live in Danville, CA.
Any dealers close by?

Strangely enough, the chicken wire used on the roof is the same 20-ga chicken wire (aka “poultry netting”) available from almost every hardware store, including the Big Orange Box. Padding is available from Bert’s (A-38533) and probably also Classtique Upholstery.

Marco Tahtaras website has a lot of hints. Here are 9 pages you can print out.

As I remember Marco says to do stretching in hot summer sun. So now would be good time to do this.

Tudors and Coupe process is the same.
