    I did a search with no luck, hopefully somebody can help me out. Any reason you can't keep the rumbleseat if you put a '30-31 coupe or roadster body on a '32 frame? Any pictures or tips on how to make this happen? Did you adapt stock rumbleseat parts or make them from scratch?

    Thanks,

    As long as you use a 40 style buggy spring or coilovers to hang the rear nothing will bother with the rumble operation. Should allow you to keep a flat floor.

    I think you can, but I plan to turn my rumble seat equiped Roadster into a trunk. Thought I bought a 30-31 inner back panel but I think it is a 28-29 now.

    I have use rumble in my 30 roadster on 32 chassis. I used a brookville tin panel to raise the rear over the curve in the deuce chasis. Works and looks a real treat!
