What can you tell me about your roadster, do you know whether its a 34 standard or a 35 standard .

Is it an American body panels stamping or is it an Australian body, made by HOLDEN GM. ?

wood door post rear to door post rear ,measured across 49 25/32" say the factory blueprint

My body is completely disassembled so cannot supply the measurement you need.

 Hopefully by sept 2015 I will have the quarters attached top the door posts.

Working on the frame filling holes and getting ready to use dummy block for motor mount placement and also trans mount for t56 tremec magnum

By the way, I have only ever seen pictures of one 34-35 standard roadster in north America made into a street rod.  Its was a picture at the LA roadsters show online from about 2 years ago, car was blue with black fenders with gary McLean chrome wire wheels.

I also am building a street rod.

Only phaeton I know about was wes rydells 35 , the grand national roadster show, Americas most beautiful roadster winner of 2014.
