27 coupe roof

[GOW]

does any one make a roof for a 27 coupe....i'm talking about the flat metal that is the roof top...I guess

Original T roof is wood and fabric and is convex, both front to rear and side to side; not flat.

I have seen more than a few T's with an actual "flat" replacement roof job and they end up looking concave and not nice.

Many ways to build a new roof structure and topping; depending on your overall plan for the car; accurate restoration, driver, hot rod, etc.

in "The H.A.M.B." section. Most of the guys here are doing original cars.

Here is a coupe with re-wooded top frame showing the convex shape to help shield off the water to prevent pooling on the top cover.
