Looking for a swatch of Twill.

As seen on the bolsters, in these pics that was on the mid 70s 911s and 912E.
There must be a salvaged or destroyed Porsche with seats that have this fabric, some where out there.

You could buy the colors/interior books from 88cs. Your swatch is in those books several times.

Not what, “whom”. A Board user that has a whole
Mess of color/interior books for sale. Middies and up. Do a search on his user name.

Check westtrading.nl. They have a lot of the rare seat fabrics. Unfortunately you need to work through an upholsterer to get a sample; they don't work with end customers. The fabric I got through them was pretty good quality, but the vinyl wasn't that great.

Tried Westtrading and they said: "I don’t think we have it. Maybe something close, but then we need a sample from the fabric for the original color."
So I said I was searching for a sample and even if I had a sample I would be afraid of losing the very valuable sample to the mail.

They wrote back today and said:"We have our stock, and unfortunately we have nothing that really matches.
I have also asked a few of our (Porsche specialist) suppliers, and they also don’t have the fabric."
