    My car has tan Connolly leather and I am looking for a source of old stock or a good supplier for a Connelly replacement.

    Velocetwo,
    what type of leather do you have in your car? Connolly Vaumol or Connolly Autolux? The best person to contact would be HVL Exclusive Italian Interiors in Holland. The owners name is Henk and he is the best in the industry. He now supplies the leather to Ferrari Classiche. Previously Ferrari Classiche used Poltrona Frau, totally wrong for older cars.
    The new addition to the leather HVL supplies is the old 'crushed' grain.
    Best of luck,
    Max.
