You're welcome David.

I knew Lee very well, a wonderful person and thoughtful. When I was piecing together my'32, I had access to Lee's fantastic original roadster that he kept in the shop out back. I wonder who has it now? I took many dimensions and photos during the process on many a Saturday morning. My '40 convertible was used for the original LB pattern. My'40 had been reupholstered over the original materials but it was a struggle for them!

We talked a few times about sourcing materials. Most of his wool interior materials were sourced in England. He was fussy about originality and showed me some of the sample rejects, shaking his head :-)
