Interesting delivery body on eBay

Post by Tbird » Wed Apr 21, 2021 5:41 pm

Interesting delivery body I came across on EBay. I’ve seen the rear door mechanism/latch before on other delivery bodies before. I have no connection to the seller

Looks like a 26-27 roadster turtle deck replacement add-on commercial body.

Could be, has the cut-away for the runabout tub. Here's an old pic of accessory enclosed panel on an Improved runabout.

That is a nice design and there is enough detail to build one like it.
