    I'm in need of the body dimensions for a 28-29. Does anyone have any technical drawings of them? Particularly around the door jambs. I'm not sure how wide it is supposed to be. My coupe body is pretty far gone and floppy. Thanks for the help (i'm new here)

    If the scans don't have what you need let me know and I can go and measure my 29 coupe. Mine was a pile of parts at one time and a few dimensions helped a lot. Let me know.

    That's precisely what I was hoping to do. I wanted to model my body and ch***is in Pro/E. I've got some good dimensions on the '32 frame (except for the curves which I'd guesstimate), but can't find what I want for the body.

    Just realized where I saved these from. There's a guy on fotki,Dave Fletcher,that has a bunch of cool stuff in his albums,including the model A scans.
