It would much easier and cost effective to find a Steel-Back body. The differences between the Leather-Back and Steel-Back bodies are significant:
>Rear window is larger on the Leather-Back;
>Interior wood is different;
>Sheet metal above the belt line is different.


Ironically, it is more common to convert a Steel-Back to a Leather-Back. Out of 518 surviving 190A Victoria Coupes on record, 311 are Leather-Backs, so it may be that Leather-Backs left on the planet outnumber the Steel-Backs.
