Is the rear panel on a '32 coupe and roadster the same?

    I may need to replace the rear body panel on my '32 5-window. I'm thinking of replacing the entire setup with the braces below the decklid. I noticed Brookville sells the whole thing for a roadster, but only the outside part for a 5-window. What's the difference?

    The height is different so they are not interchangeable. Luck has it that the innner structures are the same. So If you have to fix your 5w lower deck you can use the roadster inner supports and brace combined with the 5w outer skin. Since the repro center T brace is not attached to the repro lower deck support it can be adjusted to correct height during assembly.
