Where can I find roofing material...rubberized backing type that was used on say 1930 Packard enclosed vechicles and other classics of the 20's 30's Not the long grain type used on Model A's. My 28 Packard has a relatively smooth grainning

(814) 467 - 9842 I bought some short grain top material from these guys for my late 20's sedan and it's pretty close. They have both long grain (Model A Ford) and the short grain you're looking for. They also have a smooth grain listed that I havn't seen. Call them & ask for a sample. I'll give you a hint too. You don't have to buy the glazed cotton padding from them. Go to your local JoAnn Fabrics store & they have the exact same stuff real cheap. When I went, I had a 40% off coupon from the newspaper, so the padding for my car cost about $3.00! Who says CCCA members can't be frugal!

How do you think they afford the cars? <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
