    I have patched a few '30 - '31 model As... havent't found really good matches from cowl to door to quarter panels...
    dropping an A coupe onto my home made chassis, it had a '33 coupe on it, the frame curls upward slightly as it flows forward of the A pillar...
    i bought a pair of '35 - '36 tudor patch panels, they are about 42" long...
    the forward 16" curls upward about 7/8", you get enough for the cowl and 28" of flat left over... that will patch a 27.5" '30 coupe door...
    so $80.00 for the pair of '35s gets you [2] curved cowl, and [2] coupe... door] patches...
    this "might" also work on '32 to '34 trucks ? ...
