Hot Rods Stock Model A Dimensions...

It's probably on here 1000 times but it didn't pop up in the search...

I'm trying to figure out how much my '30 Model A Coupe has been chopped. I found one website that listed heights of the rear window and the quarter windows and the math gives me 3.5" at rear window or 5" at the quarter window...rear was probably shifted a bit...I always figured it was about 3" but wanted to check it out.
Anyone know what the stock windshield height was?

Thanks, in advance.

 

Hook a tape measure on the top of the upper door hinge and measure to the top of the middle hinge and subtract this number from 17 1/2" (the stock measurement). This will give you the amount of chop at the windshield.

 

Thanks! 3 inches it is.

 

I was going to go measure the one I have, but I see you already have your answer. Nice looking car!

 

Thanks! I had little to do with the aesthetics of this car - just painted the hood (poorly at that).
