The Ford Barn

Just purchased a sweet 30 A Roadster that had a total frame off resto 2007-2011 and was garaged from then until I acquired it. My question is: did the Roadster have a smaller gas tank than the Coupe? I also have a 30 Coupe. Fuel gauges in both seem to function well but I've always kept a marked dowel stick in the shop just to be sure. The depth of the Roadster tank appears to be about two thirds the depth of the Coupe tank. In Les Andrew's manual it says 11 gallons for the 30-31 Model A. I assume that means all A's. Has anyone ever seen an A with a smaller fuel tank?
