These are the web sites I have saved over the years .... (not in any
particular order)

GAHH, Inc.  http://www.gahh.com/ 
Auto Headliners  @ http://autoheadliners.org/ 
World Upholstery & Trim @ http://www.worlduph.com/ 
WLS Headliners @ http://www.countryfolk.org/headliner/hl.shtml
J&S Auto Options @ http://autoheadlinings.com/
Kustom Automotive Restyle @ http://www.karonline.com/

I have not contacted any of them and do not know if they even have anything
resembling the TR headliner. 

In the "for what it's worth category"...
some instructions for installation... Not TR specific, but I figured it was
a start...

I did talk with a friend who has an upholstery shop here in Tampa.  He did
not have any suggestions to match either the sample that Ronnie sent me or
the image from Doug Bach (see:
http://events.arts.usf.edu/cfmsn/triumph/TR3-Hardtop.htm ) other than
standard foam-backed headliner material that looks like a velour.  (not
particularly period looking)  His comment "he works on modern cars"  -  not
much help.....  He did suggest going to one of the cruise-ins here in Tampa
and ask around...  Might be a worth a try.

Hi,
 
Do any of you know a source other than the big three for the material used
in the TR3 hardtop?
What about the rear window?
Thanks
