I have a 1931 Chevrolet Coach and I am attempting to purchase a car cover.
Covercraft has a cover advertised for " 1932 Chevrolet Confederate Victoria with bumpers 109 in wheelbase. " I just have never heard of a "Victoria" If that is close to a 5 Passenger 2 Door Coach I am good to go.
Can someone confirm or recommend who would carry a car cover specific to the coach.
Thanks As always

There wasn't a "Victoria" in the model line-up for 1932. The model would either be a 5-passenger coupe or a landau phaeton. A coach or a sedan would use the same car cover.

We all must remember that there are many, many more Model A cars surviving than same year Chevrolets. Uninformed suppliers often use the Model A or commonly used model names than the accurate Chevrolet name. It is just something we have to learn to live with. If you ask the supplier if the same car cover will fit a Coach, Sedan, Two Door Chevrolet or will only fit the "Victoria" model then you will be more confident in receiving a well fitting cover.

I had California Cover Co. make a custom cover for my 1928 AB Canopy Express. It was expensive, but it fits like a glove and I am happy with it.

Funny thing is that when I google 1932 Confederate Victoria one historic site has a picture with Victoria in name. It looks like a Coach with extended back looks like a small interior truck.

There are many places to get incorrect information, but thankfully the VCCA chat site has many knowledgeable people. As an example if you look on Ebay many cars are listed as "hardtops" simply because they are not soft top convertibles. If you are not a VCCA member I suggest you check out the benefits of joining.

It didn't look at the photo but from your description that would be a 5-passenger coupe. If it has a convertible top then it would be a landau phaeton.
