34LaSalleClubSedan Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Would anyone have a original Packard roadster top boot for sale, or one I could use for a pattern? Any condition O.K. I believe the canvas boot is the same for 6 & 8 Cylinder cars from 1926 thru 1929. Third thru Six series. Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 My brother has an original for his 1929 phaeton, but I suspect that would be a different boot. I don't know, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34LaSalleClubSedan Posted January 12, 2019 Author Share Posted January 12, 2019 Thanks West, I'm sure there is a top boot for a roadster out there somewhere. I'm sure I'll find one someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrbartlett Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I had a top boot made for my '29 Super 8 roadster using photos from the sales brochure as a pattern. Where are you located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34LaSalleClubSedan Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 Thanks James for your reply. I am in Minnesota. My Packard 8 roadster is all original and nice survivor. Ideal I would like to find someone who is replacing their original top and top boot. So if anyone has a original 1926-1929 Packard 6 or 8 top boot I would be interested in buying it, and if anyone replacing tan canvas top material from any high end car from the 1920's 1930's I would also be interested in buying that old material. Material from a touring car might be better. That way I would have enough material for the Packard roadster. Any leads appreciated. Maybe some restoration shop might have old top material from a job they are working on. Thanks, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restorer32 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Searching for old material to install on your all original car to make it more original? My brain is going to explode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34LaSalleClubSedan Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 Problem, first you have to have one🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34LaSalleClubSedan Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 FYI Restorer32.....The top boot as well as the top material is long gone. Replaced by a metal California top from a junk 32 Chev coupe during WWII. I have the top irons and bows. I want older material to match the patina of the car in its original roadster form!!!!

Captain Harley Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 There is a 1928 Packard roadster for sale on eBay at present. In the pictures is what looks like an old canvas top boot. I doubt they would sale just the boot, but you never can tell.........  Capt.
