Try looking for a hot rod shop and find where their guys get upholstery done. Car club, has to be a local Model A club I would think.

I'm hearing top material is nearing $90.00/yd. if you can find it. I don't need any but a couple of friends are looking. Is this true?

There is a Model A Ford Club near Cincinnati called Ohio Valley Region, PO Box 62303, Sharonville, Ohio 45241. They have a lot of talented members that have done this or know someone that does this type of work.

I did the roof on my Fordor and it turned out a lot better then I expected. I did not have any help.
