The door length is slightly different from the 5 window. There is also a difference in the height of the deck (though the deck lids are common with the roadster and 5 window).

The bead around the fender is way different between the roadster and cabriolet and very similar between the 5 window and cabriolet. I agree with alchemy the best start would be with the 5 window panels, and a lot easier than starting with flat sheetmetal.

If you are looking for another basket case... call me.
