1929 Tudor door post patch panel

[UPS Driver]

Looking for a patch panel for the bottom of a drivers side door post on a 1929 Tudor sedan only needs the outside cosmetic part. Snyders lists one for open cars only so the probably won’t work . Asking before I try and make one

No that’s a quarter patch I need a door post patch just the sheet metal part

That is actually called a Quarter Pillar Lock (A-56680/81) ...and no one commercially manufactures those.

I can’t see much detail from the photo but, you may need to remove the running board and splash apron for a close inspection. If a repair piece is required and you are not able to create one plus weld it has in, a fellow club member or local body shop may be able to assist you.

OK. Now I see what you are asking for. Like Ronn said above, a donor might be your best option. I would start by emailing Steve Becker out at Bert's Model A and send him the picture of what you are wanting. Steve has the largest collection of used Model-A parts and he possibly has just the piece you need.

Thank you for the lead!! I’m sorry about the confusion earlier I knew what I saw but had a hard time articulating that on here thank for your patience!

Thank you! My uncle said he thinks he can probably fabricate it . It’s weird because the piece is available for open cars new but it specifically says won’t fit closed cars so…

The reason it is available for the open cars is that Antique Auto Sheetmetal (Brookville) reproduces the entire 40A Roadster Body ...which uses the open car Hinge Pillar in their construction. The closed cars used a different pillar because of the door hinge configuration & hinge mounting. Since no one is reproducing a new Coupe or Tudor body, there is not anything offered commercially.
