Subrail mismatch?
I recently purchased a 1927 Tudor body, without any door. The owner said he had cut the subrails (just ahead of the rear portion of the door openings) so he could transport it to the swap meet easier.
I was going to tack it back together so I could begin mock-up, but realized the subs do not match. In the photo on the left, is the rear portion, and on the right, the subs that go forward to the cowl. What are the subs on the right off of? I need to find the correct match for mine. Anyone have any ideas as to what the subs on the right are from? Last edited by 13; 05-28-2019 at 09:01 PM. |

Re: Subrail mismatch?
So what should I do? I could not find any subrails online like you can for the Model A.

You might send Mark Friemiller an email.He has a lot of junk bodies and might have what you're looking for.
