Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

Thanks Fred. That reinforces the theory that the 28-29 hinges were mounted to the inside on the rain gutter.

Lunch in Rock Creek sounds good. I'll send you an email when the weather breaks again.

Fred, if that doesn't work, how about I meet you inbetween? You could take the country roads and this weird Portland driver would like a drive into the wilds of Washington county some sunny day. :)

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

Fred, if you could just take a picture of your trunk hinge similar to this one from Steve Wastler, that might confirm our theory about 28-29s and save a drive. Isn't the coupe running?

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

Marco, there seems to be some confusion about the placement of the trunk hinge pieces. Could you please look at this thread (https://fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=160504) and give us your input...

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

That's what my new one from Snyder's looks like.

PeteCruz, send me your email by PM and I'll put you on my info list as I go through the procedure. I probably won't start in earnest until late...

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

Dennis, I just went out and looked at my gutters and the one pictured does seem to be upside down. Mine is more like a channel with an inner edge. The picture might just be a deception from the...

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

I received part # A-161-ABTR from Snyder's this morning. It is the inner panel for the trunk conversion which fits in place of the curved rumble seat panel, and it seems to be the correct size...

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

Thanks Dennis. Both of your pix are very helpful, and answer some of my basic questions.

Pluck, we should be in communication on this if we are both doing the conversion at the same time. I'll...

Re: Converting 1929 Coupe from Rumble Seat to Trunk...

I've been gathering parts for about two years to do this also. I finally have everything (I think). If someone with an original trunk could post some interior pictures it would be very helpful....
