Hot Rods American verses Australian 33-34 roadster bodies

  1. Looking for answers on the differences between 33-34 Australian Roadsters and the US versions. I know the Australian versions had wood sub rails, is the sheet metal different. Pictures would definitely help. Thanks, Gary

    The whole bottom edge is different. The rockers are higher and used that gap filler wedge.

    For some reason I thought the doors were shorter on the Aussie ones.
     
  6. I think they are, notice the tapered panel from the A pillar to the rear fender under the rocker.
