I recently picked up what i thought was a 28 chevy... But now im not so sure it is... Sorry for poor pictures its all i have... Any help would be great... Heres what i think i know It has a rumble seat... The door handles are between the body lines... Looks to be a landau coupe... As i understand a 27 would have a shorter hood than a 28... But not sure what those measurments would be... Thanks in advance

Cowls are different from 27 to 28. At the firewall just above the bead the 27 starts curving in . The 28 goes up higher before curving in. Themoose is right that is a 28. Mine is a 27 and the hood is right at 26 1/2.
