I emailed them too. Asked about buying some fabric to restore a Camaro. Their response:

"No. Sorry."

Yes, that was the entire email they sent.

Jerks!

I don't think anyone is restoring the 83 Camaro anyway, or most of the cars fabrics I have. Which is why it was going to the dump before I bought it all and did something with it instead of it going in the trash.

i just wish some one found that stuff before them o well maby someone will reproduce it someday.

They guy went out of business. The only fabric that was left was 70s and
80s auto fabrics...I guess no one was buying any it and he had it for over
30 years and had no buyer. I really don't have that much Camaro anyway.

OH MY G*D. If you sell the interior sell it to me! I've been looking for a while. I dont even remember anyone bringing it up before I did a month or so ago, although I am sure it has been discussed. I have been searching far and wide for a while and now there is one car on ebay with it, but its the gray kind which isnt as cool. i got some pics if anyone would like to see them.
