Hi, there are lots of places that will do the fabric (you would still need to have it mounted onto your frame, though).

Here are a couple places I know of:
https://www.convertibletopguys.com/conv ... 0-Roadster
https://www.cabrioworld.com/secure/deta ... odelID=499

There are probably others that are closer to you as well, just try searching on the web. (and shop around, because I saw hundreds of dollars in difference for the same thing between shops).

If you are trying to keep it as original as possible, supposedly the "Sonnendeck/Twillfast" option will most closely match the stitch and underside pattern, but it will cost more, and I had a hard time finding anyone who would do it.

Otherwise, the default canvas/fabric options that the shops offer should do fine to just keep the rain out.
