pughs Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Hi,I recently bought a 1930 Lincoln Victoria Coupe. The transporter damaged the top insert. Can someone tell me the what the original factory material was and if there is source for it now. Thank you.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen_Dyneto Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I don't know what Lincoln used but you might look at the Colonial (long or short grain) roof topping sold by Restoration Supply. It (the long grain version) was an exact match for the OEM material on my 1934 Packard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pughs Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 I have been speaking with Eric Haartz of the Haartz Corporation. He said the material is seldom used today but is trying to get me a sample. In the meantime, I need to find someone in Southern California who can do a very high quality job of replacement of the top insert. If anyone has had a good experience with a trimmer who can do such work, I would like to hear from you. Thank you.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryJ Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I suggest you join the Lincoln Owners Club as this group is quite knowledgeable and helpful re Lincolns of this period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pughs Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 HarryJ,Thank you for you suggestion but I have joined the club and they have been very helpful in many areas but not with this particular subject, at least not so far. I am looking for information on the exact original material used and any leads to someone who can do a very high quality replacement job who is in the Southern California area.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
