Just after Christmas 2014, I decided to look into one of several bins and boxes that we quickly packed up in 2011. I hadn’t recalled what we had put in each box and I was astonished to find the entire top (a bit munched by critters) and a full set of remarkably intact side curtains.
The material is advertised as mohair. I will need an expert to confirm this.
The pattern (see the close-up photo) will probably be impossible to find – gray with black pinstripe. But — we will do some looking.
I also found several snaps that had a MICHIGAN detail embossed on the cap.
It took us until 2021 and 2022, to restore this part of the car, but we did it.

The result is stunning.
