Re: 1929 Standard Phaeton on BaT
Here's an excerpt from a 1967 Montgomery Ward catalog of Model A parts. While folding stanchions aren't listed (not saying they didn't exist) what is listed are the chrome windshield frame and polished aluminum stanchions. Not sure why they were polished aluminum instead of chrome, but it is what it is. A car restored in 1967 would be considered "original" by many people, so what what available at one point during the life of the car isn't an indicator of what it was when it was actually original as new.
