'35 Speaker Cloth Source?

[flathead34]

Does any one know of a source for the speaker cloth for the speaker that mounts above the 1935 windshield on header piece? It is not the cloth that has the Ford logo you see in the catalogs. Thanks, Mike

I don't know if an "official" speaker cloth was ever designated for the '35 Ford speaker. As I understand it, the speakers were supplied by an outside supplier (probably Philco). And, you are correct, they did not have a Ford logo on it. What I used on my '35 was some common period-correct radio grille cloth. There are plenty of sources found on eBay and the stuff is generally cheap.

Hope this helps.

Flatheadfan, Thanks. That is kind of what I thought I would have to do. Your speaker looks real nice. Thought someone may have a source to recommend. Mike
