Guest Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 Hi,I want to recover a car trunk from the late 1920's. Does anyone know where I can buy the black very thin "stuff" that the outside of the trunk is covered with? I know it's not vinyl or leather.Thanks, Annette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friartuck Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Annette,I used a material I bought from a book binding company. It's a thin cloth based vinyl, but looks absolutly like trunk leather. My trunk turned out great. Bought it from Gane Brothers in the Chicago area. Would be willing to mail you a swatch. Please send a private email to friartuck@monmouth.com Will also send digital pictures and other hardware related suppliers such as nails, etc.Chris W.
