    I know Dr. Rick pretty well and his shop is just up the street from me. I can certainly ask when I see him this weekend at Albert Eschenbaughs get together. I can also tell you that H&J upholstry fabrics on 35th just south of the I-10 has any Zodiac or pearl vinyl fabrics you can think of.

    Oh wait, Glenn Kramer "Istitchem" here on the H.A.M.B. did the interior!

    Nope, not even! And now that I think about it, the company is H&R upholstry fabrics. On of those deals where I have just been driving over to it for years and never bothered to really look at the signs! I'm really slammed right now, but maybe next week I could head over and grab some green color samples for ya. Truth be told though, I have been in fabric wholesalers all over the country that have the same basic selection of stuff, so it shouldn't be too hard to find a wholesaler locally.

    1. Upholstery

    No help with the trimmer, but if the vinyl was metallic looking it is probably "Jetstream" vinyl. Most upholsterers should be able to get it. Here's a sample page link:
