1. When early 30 Roadster Pick up's were made, where were side curtains stored in the truck??

2. For those who own Roadster pick up's today, where do you store your saide curtains?

Thanks!!

Just finishing the chassis for a '31 roadster pickup. Have no experience with side curtains, yet but I would think they would go under the seat like they do on roadsters. That's where I hoped to store mine.
Is yours an orig. or a Brookville body?
I'm too tall and fat to fit in an original so I have a Brookville extended body coming the end of the month.
Would like to see any pix you have of your pickup.
Thanks

They go under the seat as far as I know.

Under the seat, with that said, I have a 5" PVC tube with end caps, I roll my curtains up and store them in the shop. When traveling I put them in the bed.
