I'm really very anxious to hear of your driving experiences with the woven lining once the car is back on the road. Restoration shops that do work on very vintage vehicles use woven lining (readily available in rolls) for those vehicles, though it was my understanding that woven material was abandoned in favor of modern molded and composite linings because they offer better frictional and heat transfer (resistance to fade) properties than woven, so if I had to guess I think you'll find them less satisfactory than new modern linings. But the final proof of which is better now will come from your experience with it and I await your results with great interest.
