Title: Any place to find original fabrics
Post by: Ben_Olddermin on November 23, 2022, 11:56:00 am: Hey is there anywhere that sells the original fabrics? I have 87 truck with the tan interior. I went to a local fabric supply shop and they said they don't have it. But they were able to match it. Said the number is 674-86. Not sure if the 86 is the year we managed to find for the fabric. Either way it matched.

I found this place but not sure if they are trustworthy. Also there is no pic.

Any ideas on a place that would still have this? He said it was Empress was the type of fabric it was. And it's no longer produced. Thank you

Yeah looks like they don't have anything for 87. But even when you try 86 it's only the land cruiser.
