Anyone know where I could get a pattern for the side curtains for a Deluxe Phaeton?

I can send you patterns based on what I sewed up. Be aware, tho, that mine are not conventional, since I had to get as good a seal as I could to keep my AC inside the car, and not just keep the rain out. Two very different goals. Plus the original style has some kind of crazy skinny flap that is part of the rear curtain and extends forward to the front stanchion. To me that was crazy and was not gonna help my goals so I did away with it. My curtains also extend a lot at the top so that they will tuck way under the topping. The reason for this is when you are driving along the topping wants to become air-borne and balloons up high letting all the AC out. Plus my eisenglass area is very large. Not Henry approved for sure but they work well for my purposes.

pm me if still interested

not all are the same... remember your 1931 has a extra snap on the doors then the 1930's. Try calling LaBaron Bonney ,,,its been awhile but if you order a kit or plan to the first thing they do is send out a paper pattern to size it up on your car measurement so all the snaps line up correctly.
