I am about to start on the upholstery for my early '31 roadster and am not sure exactly how the package tray should look when it is done.
There were no original parts left to go by so if anyone has a picture of the back rest and package tray already upholstered it would be a great help.
I hate do-overs with expensive upholstery material and would like to get it right the first time !
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.

Can you find what you need to see on Marco's website? Look under his Roadster section;

Brent, Thanks for the link it has some great pics in the roadster galleries. It appears that the material comes up the vertical surface of the package tray and wraps around the wood belt rail at the back of the tray. I'm guessing that it wraps completely around the wood rail and then is held in place by the belt rail screws.
Can anyone confirm if that is correct.
