roadster body dimensions
« on: March 20, 2009, 10:39:37 AM »
 I am trying to find the body dimensions for the 1929 and 1930 roadster. I haven't had much luck finding this info, any help would be greatly appreciated :?

To be more specific i was trying to find the width from the firewall back. For inspection purposes.

The 2 bodies are vastly different. The 29's firewall is attached to a removable cowl where I believe the 30/31 is attached to the cowl which cannot be removed from the body proper. The widest spot I believe is right behind the doors. I can give you the demension of the 29 at the factory firewall.
Most guys remove the 29 cowl for a gas/fuel roadster. You didn't say what class you are planning for the car
