27 Body wooding

[TheYeti]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to find pictures of wooding a 27 body. I've searched for 3 days and cant find anything other than floor installation.

I've seen tons of 23 wooding pictures but the 27 visually looks to have some different curves in the body.

It seems most people use a glass insert in the 27 body but I dont want that.. I want to stick with tradition with wood reinforcement.

If anyone built a 27 and has some pics of their interior wooding I'd really appreciate seeing them

My understanding is that the '27 roadster body is inherently stronger than a 23 tub, but I could be wrong. Here is a web page that shows some minimal wooding for the 27, including a 'bulkhead' behind the seats. Check it out . . .

Someone on this forum posted pictures when they were putting wood in. It was around the back and sides, maybe the doors. I may have been Cooter or Fred. Not sure, but it is on here somewhere. I know that really helps.
