With the closure of Hampon and Labaron where are folks sourcing interior and convertible top parts?
Need some new parts for my 31 cab drop top.
Thanks

Good Saturday morning.
Imgoing to try this again.
I cant believe their arent some folks out there
that arent searching for interiors and convertible tops for their cars.
Any help would be apreciated.
Going out for a fall color drive with the top down!
Cheers

Randy,
More modern vehicles (1950s and newer) have one or more sources of interior and top "kits" for the more popular models.

For older years most folks that "restore" or have their cars restored use local upholstery shops. The shops have catalogs from suppliers that contain the materials needed. Many are duplicates or very close replacements of the original. Some are not available! SMS has a large inventory but not every one. They will if the order is large enough have material made.

In the case of your '31 Cabriolet having a local shop order material from Haartz and fabricate the top is probably your best option. Maybe SMS or another company will have kits available but you might not live long enough to see it happen.


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
