Has anyone been able to find the proper bedford cord upholstery for prewar cars?  SMS and Hirsch offer the same product but the cord spacing is almost double the original.  Aside from the originality aspects, I find the wide spacing looks almost like corduroy.

Are you sure Hirsch does not have it?  I previously purchased fine ribbed Bedford Cord from him for my '42.  Granted, this was about 10 years ago.  Hirsch's website still shows they offer Bedford Cord in fine, medium, and wide ribbing:

Thanks

I should have been more specific that the blue-grey two tone is too wide when compared to the original material.
