Sometime back there was a post describing the goathair grillecloth that was originally on my '66 vintage C35s. I realize something like this won't be available but I believe Harvey Gerst mentioned a website that that had a brown cloth that was used around the same period and was still being manufactured.
Can anyone help me here?

Hi

Here is the link to that grill cloth discussion, where Harvey talked about the JBL grill cloth that you are looking for.

And here is the link to the supplier:
http://www.wendellfabrics.com/mellotonefabricsamples.html

For some reason I don't see the sample that Harvey suggested on the wendell fabrics site: Model # AF5115-21.

I would recommend that you contact wendell fabrics and ask for samples and if the AF5115-21 cloth is still available.

Because you really need to see what you are buying, the colors on the web site really don't always match actual cloth.

For my own project, I ordered 4 square yards, which is their minimum order, and even with shipping I think it was about $80.00.
