Fabric suppliers - any tips? 1985 051 'black'

[huck280]

Hi all,

Anyone know where I can either get a bit of this fabric - 051 - black (sometimes called anthracite)?

It was produced from 1970 into the 90s, and put on more or less every car in the range (a bit utilitarian for the 600 and 450sel, though!).

I'm even happy with any part of a seat/doorcard with this fabric on it.

Got a minter of a 123 except - you guessed it - the driver's seat bolster...

ANy tips, I'd be very grateful.

Leif

Yes - much undervalued cars, in my view! All that you'd want from an SL, but with an interior.

And the 450s got similar fuel economy (if you want to call it that...) to the w123 280e that I had... It's a happy place!
