Starting with '36 Ford 4 Dr. doors and needing pic's of the inside shot of a roadster door to see location of latch mechanism and curve at top inside. Nother words I want to convert the 4dr. to as close to a Roadster door as possible. Got pic's? Thanks!

Brigat, Here are some roadster doors showing interiors. Keep in mind that door latching mechanisms are very different. Hope this helps.

Don, That's exactly what I needed, I can make it happen! Thanks & sorry for the duplicate pi's. Can't seem to delete thread and start over or delete double pics. Thanks again Don!

Click "edit" then click "go advanced" Then you can remove or ad the pics you want.

Or phaeton as the (front) doors are the same on both body types.

Brigat, Some more pics of '36 roadster doors and their bracing.
I have wood patterns if needed. Gnolnor

Those are also great pic's Gnolnor !
Let me be real clear on what I am doing at the risk of losing your interest & help. I am the first to call this project a "Wanna Be" '36 Ford Roadster. Took a '36 Ford 4 dr. and with the help of others more talented trans gendering it to a Roadster. My goal is to have it look like a '36 Roadster BUT because of engine, trans, QC choices not all is FB friendly. The outside of doors have already been altered, just trying to figure out how I want the latching to work. If still with me here maybe I can lean on you and Don for some critical measurements as I will be tackling the rear section also? As always thanks to all!

You are not using FB to host pics ?.

Prob photobucket?

I think the problem is I had the same thread started on the HAMB, cut and pasted it here? The thread on the HAMB by me did not show double/triple pic's...........................
