    3 years ago I found and bought this Henry Roadster body. Since then, I have been searching and buying body panels in order to get a complete kit, before I tear into this project.
    In order to get the body back onto a '32 chassis ( it was sitting on a Model A frame, back in the 50's) I will have to get a complete subframe and floor panels.

    So, my question would be:
    Where do I get the best/most accurate sub rails and floor on the market?

    Brookville. I used their parts when I fixed my channeled roadster 10 years ago and everything fit really good.

    I have looked at some of the vendor sites for Brookville parts and it is probably just me, but it seems there is no way to order a complete subrail/floor?

    When I did mine I just ordered the sub rails, cross members and floor separately and assembled them on the frame. Doing it that way made shipping cheaper than an assembled floor. It's better to do it on your own frame for fit.

    Call Jocar in Sweden they make roadster and 5W bodies. Shipping from USA would cost a lot and they are located a 1-2 hour drive from Copenhagen.
