Oooh, big job! I'd not considered making my own, but someone with experience doing upholstery shouldn't have a problem. You could use cloth, though the later Minors used vinyl. You might consider making a new front board, too...I have two ripped-up ones. :o

ready made ones are about £60 from suppliers, probably cost you £40 for the proper material then usually first attempt is a practice second one the end result so in my view not worth the bother
