Default Blue prints for the coupe bodies 32?

I have done a few searches and i haven't come up with a lot of actual dimension when it comes to the coupes. I know i can buy the roadster 1/4 panel blue print and one for the frame for the 32. But i have not seen one for the 5 window or any of the other body styles. The restoration manual has a few measurements for the seating and overall body height but not the detail like the roadster quarter.
Has anyone tried getting ahold of the Ford museum to see if that information exists? or has anyone seen a copy of them?

They likely exist in the Benson Ford Research Center in Dearborn. You might give them a try. Likely they are large and will involve some expense to duplicate them.

I believe that the frame drawing that you are referring to is not a Ford Engineering drawing, but rather something that someone drew from their frame. The real thing exists at the BFRC and it is complete, unlike the one in general circulation which is missing a number of dimensions.

I have bought 14 prints from the Benson so far. Always nice to work with dimensions and details that are correct. That being said, they are not cheap at $30 a print and you have some limitations as to their use unless you want to pay more. Rod
