1929 Six Speed seat material?

I have an original 1929 Six Speed. It has the original seats but the two bottom covers have a few tears and should be replaced. The seat backs are still in good condition. I would like to find the same or very similar vinyl type material if possible. It is a darker brown but the color in the pattern appears to be darker or black. Does anyone have a good source for vintage upholstry material? I know I could recover with an all new color or even black but was wondering if anyone would have the original old stuff?

Don't know who would have the original material. Would you mind posting some photos of the seat backs and the bottoms of the seats? I only have the bottoms for my restoration and don't know if they are correct or not, and don't have the backs to replicate.

Could it be a hide from a "Nauga"?

Give me a couple of dats and I will get some pics. The backs are basically just pads that hang on wood strips in the back of the cab.
