Here are some pictures of my 36 cabriolet. The plastic tack strip is available from Le Barron Bonney.
You will need to fabricate the metal U shaped channel that attaches to the body and holds the tack strip.
I sold the support arms on EBAY 3 months ago.
The color of the Victoria when I purchased it was yellow and brown with the orange wheels. I have repainted the body to Kewanee green and elkpoint green. the wheels will be painte black. It is a leatherback so it will be getting the tan LB top.
Mike,
If you send me your direct email address I can send you alot of pictures of my victoria. It is still open and I can photograph all the wood for you.

Thanks Brent,
I will let them make the decision on wether to buy one or not.
I told him that there were some mfg. with automatics and he can go from there.
I would never purchase one but that is just me.
Has any one ever converted a shay to an automatic transmission?
I have a friend in Tenn. That would like to get a Model A but his wife won't drive a stick, so he is looking at a shay if it can be converted to an Auto trans.
I am looking for a good hood with no broken hinges .
I only need the top but will purchase an entire hood.
If you have one for sale please send me a couple pictures to james.heider@yahoo.com
Thanks
I am looking for a very good original hood for my 31 Victoria. I mainly need the top as I have good sides but will purchase the entire hood. The hood must be in good shape with no broken or cracked hinges.
Please send pictures to james.heider@yahoo.com along with asking price.
Thanks
