    Super old, but Has anyone ever used the ribbed roof out of a 59-60 Chevy station wagon to fill the roof opening in a Tudor? The ribbed roof is actually about 2/3 ribbed and 1/3 smooth. Wondering if you did, did you leave the ribs or fill them. If you didn't fill, any pictures of your roof? I have the opportunity to buy one. Thanks in advance.

    The widest point is 48" Much of today's junk has a 3 piece roof, narrow sides and a middle panel which is too narrow.
    I used the roof ( no ribs) from a '62 Ford wagon Galaxie?. My metal guy said the front -to- back and side-to-side curve was nearly perfect.
