Hi, Paul. I have a piece of vinyl left over from my restoration of Matilda in the 1980s. It's approx. 4' x 6' and in this pattern. If interested, will let go veddy cheap, sahib:

Nick,
Thanks for the offer! I'm not convinced what I am attempting to do is going to work so I may just re-do the whole enchilada. I'm going to take my seat to work in the next couple weeks and have a guy look at it that has been doing upsolsetry work on the side for the last 25 years. He is going to bring in his early 60's pattern book and see if I can get the correct vinyl wholesale.

The pattern you show is not correct, but you probably know that. So how much material is needed to do two seats, door panels and rear jumper?

There's not enough to do the seats and door panels etc. I used the remainder of this on door panels and the trunk sides and it looks great. This was left over from a piece twice as big.
