Default 33-34 phaeton wood: help needed, please

Does anyone have either photos of the dog leg and quarter/rear belt rail wood for a '33-'34 phaeton or even better perhaps patterns they might lend to duplicate this wood missing completely from a basket case '33?

Thanks!

The attached photos are of an Australian 1934 Ford Phaeton, so may not be of any help with your project. Note that on all Australian built 33/34 Fords, they have a Wooden Floor. The only part of the Floor that is steel is the part that is visible in these photos, which is positioned under the back seat. From this point forward, it is all wood. That is why there is no Floor visible in these photos, as the car was purchased as a Basket Case. You will also note that the Doors are not as deep on Australian cars, as they are on the American ones. The Centre Pillar is also wider on Australian 33/34 Ford Phaetons. The owner of this car is lining up the doors and centre pillar so that he can substitute folded steel instead of wood, as it will be much stronger than the original, plus he didn't get any with the car that he could use as Patterns.
