Technical A coupe rear window ????

The coupe I am building had a roll down rear window which I have eliminated. The wood that was around it seems too large (thick)now with all the hardware removed. Anybody got a pic of the wood installed in a non roll up coupe for reference. Hoping to alter the wood but a pic would be great or some input before I start this.................thanks.

 

Here's a few pics, you will need to use a standard 1928-31 rear window molding (coupe and sedan) not the deeper one on used for the roll down rear window ( that molding also fits 1930-31 sedan delivery back doors)

Here's some more,

Many thanks, that shows me what I need to know.

 

That roll down window is quite desirable, do you still have it or any of the parts?

Well, I know I have the glass and the crank somewhere. I just saw the pan this week also. I will find all the pieces and put up some pics. Thanks for the reminder. So much going on with this build now that a lot gets put away and forgotten

 

I have the regulator somewhere and the drip pan and glass. Also, the rear package tray. I have the original top wood piece and the two side vertical pieces. The pan would need a repair in the center and the water outlet needs to be reattached.

I will never use any of this so if anyone would be interested let me know.

 

Are you going to keep the rumble seat or convert to a trunk?

 

memory is part time help...
leftover '29 and some '30 murray 4 screw door window regulators were used for the rear window regulator, don't remember left or right... garnish is thicker front to back... HIH.

 

MrT, the previous owner had converted to a trunk. It will remain for sure.

Smitty, It looks like they used 3 and 4 bolt regulators in the back window. All of mine are three bolt.

 

never seen a 3 bolt rear.... I can still learn, its the remembering that gets me !

 

a picture of the wood kit would speak 1000........

 

I tore the shop apart and cannot find the regulator or any remaining wood pieces! You know how things get misplaced, very aggravating to say the least. As I remember three years ago when I tore it all apart that the wood was rotten and most likely I tossed it....now the regulator is a mystery.

 

the model A parts catalogs must have a pic or drawing of the rear window's wood panel...
