  I know this has been asked before. Does anyone have measurments or a schematic of any of the wooden parts for either a 31/32 chevy coupe or a 31/32 chevy roadster. If anyone needs the measurments or parts for the doors I have them ,.If anyone need the frame rails for either I have them. vette59jdwl.  Looking for measurements on cross members and or any uprights along with the measurements for the boot. Convertible top  thanks

  I built me one of those copier duplicators and i am making copies of all the wood. I got my drivers door for the roadster from Don Beals and am happy as hell with what i got. I have made three complete so far for the roadster 32 and am working on the passengers side door as we speak. I have no idea where you would get the metal parts for the doors. I have what came with my car and will be using all the original equipment I am using a 250 with a 57 truck bellhousing an 11 inch flywheel and a 5 speed stick with a 1989 Dodge D-50 rear end  wanted juice brakes and everything else to make it look almost original sort of a restomodI will talk with Glen Rarick tomorrow evening and ill ask him he might know. vette59jdwl

Thanks for the lead.

are you making the wood main rails or just the measurements.looking to replace a few pieces of my wood.

vette59jdwl

  Redsshed77   I am making the main rails for either a 31 coupe or roadster or a 32 coup or roadster I am making them out of Two sheets 3/4 inch plywood with 1/8 inch glued and screwed in between for a total thickness of 1-5/8 inches. I am also duplicating the wood for the 1932 chevrolet roadster not sure if 31 is the same or not.
  What i wish to do is to make patterns or copy any particular piece and then make copies. I have read to many times of people just destroying the wood out of their cars and then tomorrow someone is looking for information and measurments say for a door block to hold a door lock mechanizm ??????what did you have in mind   vette59jdwl
