Title: Spider OE Hoods Fabric or vinyl ? Post by: HFStuart on November 14, 2016, 12:02:03 AM Met a nice chap on the stand at the NEC - Walt from New Jersey in the US.
He's owned his Spider from new and is now looking for a new hood. He asked what the OE spec for them was - were they all mohair / canvas or vinyl or was there a combination? I didn't know for sure. Does anyone on here? Title: Re: Spider OE Hoods Fabric or vinyl ? Post by: peteracs on November 14, 2016, 12:29:34 AM Hi Stuart
No authority, but never heard of any original that was not vinyl. Peter Title: Re: Spider OE Hoods Fabric or vinyl ? Post by: Aureliab20gt on November 21, 2016, 12:47:28 PM My 81 Spider had it's original hood and was a woven fabric......wouldn't say canvas. The tonneau that covered it was vinyl.
