Match vinyl seat material.

[60studehawk]

I am trying to match the vinyl in my 60 Hawk. Have no idea if its original or not. Here is a pic of the arm rest. Any Ideas where I can find this material or someting real close?

You might try sms interiors in Oregon, they seem to have a lot of the stuff.

Thanks 63larkcustom. I already checked out their website and ask them to send me some samples.

It is a bit hard to tell without actually SEEING the fabric, but from here I think if you have a Tan interior, you may want to consider something like John's Beige #448 in the Madrid texture or Sand #416 in the Sierra texture. it's about the right color and because it has the light leather graining, not harsh like #561 and NOT smooth like your recovered armrests it will look correct.

These folks are very responsive: http://www.automotiveinteriors.com/seatcovers.htm

I bought their seat covers (not OEM, but representative) and extra vinyl to cover my trim panels & armrests.

Looks like they use my the same factory as I do, but 25-30 % higher priced. I do love their web page though, better pictures of the materials then I have.
