Roadster vs coupe?
Can anyone tell me if I can use 26/27 coupe/sedan inner fender patch panels on a 26 roadster turtle deck? I don't need them to fit perfectly just along the bottom few inches. Thanks, Dennis

Re: Roadster vs coupe?
There’s nothin special about the bottom few inches of a 26/27 roadster wheel well. Can be easily made from a strip of sheet steel and some simple hand tools. Careful assembly is arguably more important than a good fitting panel. Here’s a pic of the repair work I did on my ol ‘27 roadster

Re: Roadster vs coupe?
Although the 26-27 coupe and roadster use the same rear fenders, the trunk side construction and the inner fender Pannels are different.
