    FYI
    Just happens im looking for interior Kits myself for my newest Hudson Project. Previous Hudsons had bought Acme headliner then went to local Fabric Upholstry Store for material to cover original panel board.
    Here are a couple Interior Sites. Naturally they dont have Hudson listed but advertise specializing in all older cars so should accomodate.

    If you want to do the work yourself you will need to contact several companies to find what you want and what you will finally use.

    I would recommend that you Google for local interior shops around your area and check out one or two shops that work on old cars. My local shop has access to all types of material and has been able to find original materials, at better prices, in places and sources that I did not even know about. Keep in mind that a lot of shops do not like to do complete interiors because there is a lot of work to do one and it ties up their shop for extended time. This is also an area where the "touch of the masters hand" comes into play. It is not a Model A Ford so it takes a little bit more ability to make it look right. I liken it to sewing up your own suit. Seems simple enough but once you get started you find out that some things are better left to professionals.....

    I have a 47 Hudson coupe.

    The following link will help with the headliner.

    Door panels you can build yourself. The link also has the basic materials you will need.

    As Nev Hud mentioned, SMS is a good source as well. I sent for smaples for my 50 Commodore. They have the exact fabric. I was thrilled, now I just have to gather up funds for 7 yards times 89.00, expensive but just like original.
