So it went from left hand drive to right hand drive and back again? Great looking sheet metal work.

"Johnny" and I share the same ride, 1938 Convertible Club Coupe. Last year through our efforts we had Top Boots made for both of our cars. I started it with a wanted ad here for a boot or pattern and he was instrumental in helping me out by having a car interior man in his local area make 2 boots using his car for the patterns. We checked measurements between our vehicles to be sure and both boots turned out great. He resides in Canada so there was international shipping involved as well. His car was exported as a right hand drive that he choice to change to left hand drive during his restoration.
