I am looking for a roadster 1913-22 turtle deck lid for my '15 Speedster project. This is the square lid with 2 handles, early ones have cast handles, later have stamped steel. Corners of the lid are rounded. Doesn't matter to me which year as they will all work. For the right price I would buy the turtle deck and lid if I can't find just a lid by itself.

These differ from the 22-25 in that those are rectangular and have square corners and no handles, only a keyhole.

Thank you.

I found a deck lid, now I need the 2 handle/latches for it.
Thanks,

1915 up used a key so would only have a single hole in the bottom center.

I believe the roadster used the 2 handles through early 22 but the coupe had a key hole from around 15 and later. Late 22 to 25 the roadster went to the rectangular deck lid with the key. Anyway, I have the deck lid that needs 2 handles.
