Really nice shop. Exhaust evacuation system, waste oil collection system--first rate!!

The Victoria was introduced in late '30 and included both a slanted windshield and the new type radiator shell. They did produce a straight windshield prototype in early 1930 but the bustle was a slightly different shape and it had no provision for a rear mounted spare.

Yep, I was hoping someone would comment. Too may folks believe they didn't have a deep gloss.

The new fenders, running boards, and aprons were introduced in September 1930 and were included on all Victorias.
