Roadster tulip panel issues
Hi All,
I inherited a project car, 28/29 roadster and the tulip panel is about a half inch short of aligning with the roadster rear quarters. Is what I have the wrong part or is this intentional by Ford? Thanks! Last edited by Hough_28Roadster; 07-15-2021 at 10:20 AM. |

Re: Roadster tulip panel issues
You didn't state what year or model model A you have. It appears to be a 28 or 29 roadster. You might have the wrong year panel.
You might add the year and body style to your post. |

My 29 panel measures 1-1/8" high while my 31 measures 1/2 inch. It appears you are trying to use a 30-31 panel on your 28-29 body.

I was kind of think the same thing as 31steve. If the part is a repro, all bets are off!

Re: Roadster tulip panel issues
1930-31 panels have a reveal along the front edge and corners. More good pictures, dimensions, etc. of what you have may help to identify it.
Does anybody know why some refer to these as Tulip panels? - |
