Default 1934 Ford Cabriolet

Does anyone make repro top irons for a 1934 Ford Cabriolet ?
I seem to remember a company many years ago called Superior something

No, the business was sold and the new owners are making the parts again. Not sure if they’re producing the irons you need yet, but they are in business.

Strange the seller didn't put all the cabriolet top parts into a single auction.

Seriously incomplete. Missing the irons that go over the top of the window and attach to the header, missing the center steel top bow, missing one sheetmetal rear post cover, missing the heavy casting pivots that attach to the sheetmetal rear post cover (and the other half that attaches to the body).

If nothing else this might help someone taking apart or assembling one.

I've seen "Bad Chad" briefly before (by accident), so I won't be watching this clip.

Guy's like Bad Chad need the same amount of material taken out of there head as they chop out of a top. ANYONE who thinks their "interpretation" of what will make a 33-34 "look better" needs serious help!!! My opinion!!

Reach out to member @Elvis100 here. He has made some sets, along with 33-34 and 35-36 roadster top irons. The cabriolet irons are pretty complicated, and he does it in his spare time. Everything he has made has been beautiful and high quality. Here's a link to an old ad of his:

Bad Chad looks like the three stooges wrapped up into one, trying to turn over that stuck motor.
