66 Monaco Wiker

Getting ready to restore interior on my 66 Monaco. Does anyone know where I can find the correct wicker material for door panels and seat backs?

I wish that was available. If you find a source, pass it on so the rest of us can get some for our cars.

I'm going to visit a classic car Upholstery shop tomorrow to see if they have source. I will definitely share info if I find a source.

Haven't looked lately, but a few years ago I thought I saw some in a hobby/craft store, that I thought was dead-on. Also saw some in a catalogue for guys who make furniture, or do woodworking . . .

Thank you. I plan on checking places today.

Wicker is also known as rattan - which might allow for more hits on a search.

Here's the first hit I got (scroll down):

pressed cane sounds about right, good luck.
