Does anyone know who may have bought out LeBaron-Bonney's stock when they went out of business? Hoping to find a few interior items, especially the material for the trunk. Can't seem to find anything close to the original like they had at L-B for my 39-5019A. Thanks for any leads you all may have.

I had read on the AACA forum that SMS Fabrics bought it out, but I can't verify that.

I've heard that rumor as well but haven't confirmed it. If you do find out that they have that cloth, please report back as I need that same cloth for my 39. I haven't really pursued it because I'm not quite ready for that project and well...it's SMS.

It's no rumor and the court filings show SMS auto fabrics bought the inventory.  I've seen other evidence.
Last I contacted SMS, earlier this year, they were in a mess trying to cope, but later activity, shipments, etc. seems to confirm their getting back to normal.
However, there's no listing of what they have or don't have as far as I know.
About all you can do is look it up and ask.
