Hi all
My '71 914/4 1.7 delivered new here in Italy in L60E Irish Green and 32 Beige Leatherette interior with Corduroy Seat Inlay. The previous (and first) owner at some point changed completely the interior with different materials and colors. I'm currently restoring the car and I would like to put it back as it was originally, and what I'm looking for is a company that does reproduce the correct Beige leatherette material to recover seats, door panels and back seats including the Corduroy inlay, and possibly the picture of the interior of a car with the same specs. Many thanks in advance for your help. mbracing |

I checked to typical porsche upholstery sources and none seem to offer corduroy.
But do a simple internet search and you may find some acceptable material. Such as: https://fabricwarehouse.com/corduroy-fabric/ |

Somebody spoke about Lakewell in Belgium, or 914rubber. Thanks mbracing |

Thanks mbracing The beige basketweave material from 914rubber is a good match but their smooth beige material for the bolsters and the backpad isn't a match. Much too dark.
