I just recently installed a Cartouche kit in my 1940 and the material is inferior in my opinion.

What is the contact info for Lee? This is 11 years old but may help.

Well, that is interesting since they are the one manufacturing most of the fabric for Model-As, -and pretty much all of us that are making Model-A interiors purchase our fabric from them.

I always though Cartouche was like a burp bag.... I'd take a chance on them if they offered the same material L/B did.
