MG MGB Technical - Source for GT Interior fabric?

I have a '70 BGT with the "Grey" headliner and surrounding trim. Has anyone been able to source this material by the yard? I need to do repairs and this rare off white/grey is the only vinyl color not listed by the yard in Moss or VB. I tried Woolies but besides outlandash shipping on small items to the US, they never even answered my emails.. Hoping for something in the US. I usually always make/recover my own panels. And the amount of material needed is not all that much. Have tried numerous outlets. Thought someone here may have gone thru this before. Thanks

the material is avail from any vehicle trimmers as it is the headlining material also used in the classic mini and is exactly the same colour and texture

Peter, at first I thought I only needed some long narrow strips to do the header trim panels, front and sides. But now that I look I will need to redo both C-Pillar panels also, so I may need more that I originally thougt. Just got word from a fellow from the UK who is going to supply carpet that he may have some of this material also, I would like to keep yours in mind if this does not work out. Probably better to do your job first and then see how much you have left. Thanks for the generous offer, I really appreciate it. I will keep you updated. Mike

Guys, thanks for pointing me in the right direction. It looks like I will have to get it from someplace in Europe, but at least I can get it, it seems.
Thanks Mike
