Title: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: JimmyMac on August 01, 2004, 11:02:52 AM Can anyone tell me if you can still buy the original hoodlining material? I plan to redo mine, visors and all. I also need the piping for around the doors (dark green)Anyone with supplier/cost etc. I am in Brisbane.

The coloured FE piping is available from Rare Spares or most of the other rubber sellers FC piping which is black with a silver fleck is also n/a as far as I know Ken Title: Re: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: earlyholdenfan on August 02, 2004, 06:48:18 AM Hey JimmyMac
I had some delaings with Harrisons Holden Spares at Loganholme when last I was in Brisneyland and they were alright by me and had some of the harder to get stuff! but they did have a good range of the windlace and pipings for the earlies, maybe give them a try??

THE Y HAD HEAPS OF PIPEING IN STOCK. DONT KNOW IF THEY ARE STILL AROUND BUT HERES SOME DETAILS .PH3354 2053 43 BLACKWOOD ST.PO BOX 6095 MITCHELTON QLD 4053. BIZ CARD SEZ THERE THE AUTHORISED DISTRIBUTOR FOR PETER JACKSONS OLD AUTO RUBBER CO. MIGHT BE WORTH A LOOK BECAUSE THEY WERE CHEAPER THAN RARE SPARES.

Ken, was all FC piping black with silver fleck? What about windlacing (or is it the same stuff?) My interior is blue and black. Thanks Jimmy Nige Title: Re: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: mcl1959 on August 12, 2004, 09:35:41 AM Yes piping / windlacing is black with a silver fleck on all FC's
Ken Title: Re: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: Martin on August 12, 2004, 11:57:39 AM Nige,
For what it's worth - I can confirm Ken's advice (how could you doubt the man!). My FC interior is blue and black (trim no. 308-630 Viscount blue/black). The windlace/piping is definitely as Ken says - black with silver fleck/thread (I just went out to the garage & had a look). And I would bet my left gonad (nothing to lose at my age!) that my interior is original (so is the car's).

No doubts at all Martin, just confirming I had read the post correctly. Nige Title: Re: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: mcl1959 on August 13, 2004, 08:43:05 AM The problem is that windlacing is available just about everywhere, but no one does black with silver fleck.
Rare Spares has black with gold fleck. If anyone has found a source of black/silver fleck please list here. Regards Ken Title: Re: Original hoodlining material + door piping Post by: fe2ek on August 13, 2004, 10:17:57 AM The windlacing on my Fc 215 is grey with black fleck and its looks original to me .
