Did the 29 coupe with a trunk lid alway have the same floor panels as a rumble seat car? What is the difference between a standard coupe and a special coupe?
 
I believe the floors were the same for trunk and rumble. Special coupe had wood framed, fabric covered upper cab--much the same construction as the Sport Coupe, but with different window treatment--I think--I don't have one.
 
Actually the special coupe rear window and paneling was more
like the standard coupe than the Sport coupe, with the roof
fabric covering the back of the cab down to the beltline. The
metal panels around the rear window were some what plain
or even crude as they were covered by the roof fabric anyway. .
There was also a metal beltline trim strip that covered the
lower edge of the roof fabric around it’s bottom edge.

I believe the rumble seat floor etc was the same on both trunk and R/S
cars except for a curved panel from the inside trunk lip down to the seat
[FONT=&quot]pan on the rumble seat cars.
