I can't help with the detail questions but another source for interior wool fabrics, though not of the quality of the Bill Hirsch products, is LeBaron-Bonney - they have a fairly wide selection and are reputable.

Although rather tedious to search through, The trim section in the parts list can also provide some clues, particularly for headliners.
For example, Group 31.458 shows the headliner assembly as part number 951289 for 110, 120 and 160 club and business coupes (Bodies 1475-78-85-88-95-98) The Bulk Trim Stock listing on page 170 shows the bulk material by the yard as "Fabric, Upholstering 61" headlining material napped" with part number 325195 for a wide range of 1938 to 1941 models. An undisturbed original for any of these would help for confirmation of the correct material. Headliners were usually a tan color for all interiors, regardless of the different color variations on the seats and door panels.

That's very helpful to know that headliners were tan regardless of seat color. That helps solve one of the mysteries...thank you very much for this information!
So, it would seem a lot of restorers miss this point as it seems most cars I have seen have matching headliner and seat color.

Headliner should be brushed cotton. check with Kanter, very good product. he will want to know how many bows are in the headliner. John

I had SMS Fabrics remake the original grey broadcloth with blue pinstripe. Had to order 16 yards but I'm told I only need 8 yards for my 160 coupe. It took SMS 3 years to come up with it!! If you are interested in the 8 yards I do not need, I'm willing to sell it to you. Please PM me.

Tabletennissport,
Did your car have a tan headliner or was it a matching grey to the seats?

I bought pre-sewn grey headliner from SMS stock. Because I didn't know that it was supposed to be tan. Quality and colour is nice though.
