Interior Kit for Monogram '40 Ford?

I'd like to tuck and roll my convertible interior. I understand that Replicas & Miniatures once made a resin T&R kit for the Monogram/Revell '40, but they're OOB. I've googled various word combinations, but haven't found anything promising. I'm plumb out of search ideas.
I'd be happy just to get a front seat; the doors and other pieces are not so important. I suppose I could get a hod-rod style '40 Ford coupe kit and use just the seat, but I'm not sure which one would fit right and look good. Besides, a whole kit for just the seat?
Also regarding the M/R '40: MGC and DM both carry a PE set for the car. From the pic in the Jan issue of SAM, the kit grille looks, well, cheesy. So I'm hoping for a better look with the PE grille.
What do you think?

Good to know! I've already sent him an email.
Thanks for the correction, EB. If you're listening, Norm, sorry for the error.

I haven't ordered anything direct from Norm for about a year as I'm way behind in catching up building. And, I'm trying to balance exotics and American muscle/customs. Right now I've got a couple of Ferrari's in work and a 56 Chevy Delray.
If it matters, Norm used to not take PayPal.

It does, but I'll deal with it somehow. I did send him an email, but he hasn't replied yet.
No website, no email, no PayPal, no problem. I'll just pretend it's 1964 and give him a call. But... can his rotary dialer handle a call from a newfangled pushbutton phone?

He gets more than enough business as it is. Its a personal choice. And one we should all respect.
He spends the time in producing product and working on new offerings. The time not spent in maintaining a web site goes into into product development and delivery,
Personally, I can abide a lot if the vendor provides quality products. And Norm is definitely in that category.
