I would give a company such as LeBaron Bonney a call and see what they recommend. I agree, dealing with fabric that's almost 80 years old, you should be very careful. It's probably very "brittle", if thats the word, from years of someone smoking in the car and heat radiated thru the roof. You might need to replace it.
