Default Early 1931 Victoria Rad Shell

I have been searching for nice rad shell for my Vicky for over a year with no sucsess. The one I have has had a lot of repair and is not great so I was hoping to find a better one. The repos are garbage. Any suggestions ?
I am also searching for the correct front seat frames for my early 31 Vicky. Any suggestions where I might possibly find these?

I have called Steve in Denver. Most of the time he never replies , I it very hard to find out whether he has anything or not.

He has been moving to a new location for a few months now. This may explain why he has been so hard to get a hold of.

Attachment 292223This is the radiator shell that was introduced on the new Victoria Coupe in November of 1930. The shell has a separate upper insert panel secured with metal tabs.

Interesting that it is white top and bottom. Was that a color that was offered for the Vicky?

Ed,
The color is not authentic, and it is not white. I painted my 190A in colors that I like which are not original.
