I have a large container of Veeder-Root sheet metal, I just don't know what it fits if there is a difference.
BTW, is that little car a Goggamobil, if not what is it.

Is that a 1967 model 51 Leasure Dream chair? It looks like the burnt orange model, the one they called the THINKING Chair?

There is a difference between a 1934 and 1935 sheet metal. That is a 1933 and will take 1934 type sheet metal on top I have never seen the bottom band intact on that model. The guy who changed the price threw them all away  http://www.oldgas.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=176202#Post176202Maybe we could all sweet talk Scobie into making a batch or two of tops on the laser cutter. I could use a couple myself. They could be sold flat w/ indents for bend location and bent local.

I still need 1, 35 top and 1, 34 top. I also need one 32 variator band.....approx 4 tall w/ hasp There is also supposed to be a flat bar that goes on top, under the sheet metal that is bent at each end and threaded to accept the top dial face screw. I have the three 8" bars I need but I still need one for a 10 3/4" computer from a Tokheim #36

Boy, sounds like the sheet metal is some sought after stuff.... I have 1/2 of the top, and I do have the little bar that goes across the top and the top face screw attaches to it.

most folks don't care about the sheet metal,
but I am trying to assemble a computer collection.
No one makes parts for computers, except the decals.
I could use a couple sets of NOS Flat wheels

The computer you have is a 1933 model variator and needs the sheetmetal like the one on the left.
It will have 1 cutout on the other side for the mounting ear.
only 32 and 33 computers that went into Wayne 40 pumps had all three mounting ears on the same horizontal plane.
The sheet metal you would need could be identified by having two notches on one side and one on the other and no aluminum plate on the side.
Every variator after 1933 had 1 ear lowered like pic above.
I beleive that was so it could be tilted in the cabinet for easier removal.
By 1935 the variator and its mounts stayed the same until 1945, when there was another variator frame change.
The mounts on the new model were the same as the old.

Joe--I felt you should see the sheet metal that was on my Wayne 40. Its shaped like the pieces you show but the whole unit is in 1 piece. I don't know the year of my VR, but maybe you remember from when you rebuilt it. It looks like the computer at the start of this thread. If you need more pictures, let me know. Did JimmyS have a picture of the decal that was recognizable (I'm assumming on the variator band)? I had a picture of the other decal on the sheetmetal and I sent it to DB a while back, so he has it and is making me a copy.---KEVIN

That metal will fit Wayne 40 and will fit the computer in the first pic. Here she is after her first bath. It would be nice if someone with a laser cutter could make up a few sets of metal...I would take a few.  YEP,,,same computer as the pic on top
