Hi,

I've a 1963 TR4. The rear interior is the original vinyl. The vinyl  
has held up really well, but the rear panel (what your back would  
rest against if you sat on the rear 'seat') has lost all its lining  
and padding. I can see remnants of muslin and odd crumbs of foam, but  
no complete pieces of either to know what was there. I'd like to  
renovate and resurface the backing to the vinyl, rather than just fit  
new, inferior product. I really like the aged, but serviceable vinyl  
that remains as it has a loved and used patina about it. Can anyone  
tell me just what should be behind the vinyl? I'd like to recreate  
what was originally there.

Many thanks,

Brian in Valley Forge
1963 TR4 CT14455-L
