Hi there,

I've been looking for a certain type of interior for a 1955 Ford Fairlane for some time, but can't find the original pattern.
Anyone know where I can get the pattern on the picture?
I'm not in a hurry as I still have loads of rust to deal with...

Brgds,

From others I have heard mixed reviews from SMS. However they are the only company that I know of that could get material like or very close to original.
I have never ordered from them

That is good the hear. On a different site (Lincolns) there is a user that had a bad experience. Every time SMS is mentioned, he drags up his bad experience. But there is so few choices for seat covers and inside door panels.

Love that original seat pattern!!

Seems like I remember a company called "Original Auto Interiors" in car magazines 10-15 yrs ago. They were up in the NE US if I remember correctly.

At that time, they could send you out samples of their OEM material too.

The easiest thing in the world would be replacing everything and finding something else. But that pattern...I haven't seen anything like it and overall it's in good shape. I just need a bit of material for that front seat. I got in touch with SMS and they have sent a sample I'm waiting for currently.
I will try to look up that other company. A plan B is not a bad thing.

Oh...looks like it's one company now.
