Can some our there who has built a 1929 roadster pickup tell me if the seat , top, And windshield frame are the same as the roadster ? Thanks Tom

Of the items you referenced, the windshield frame is the only item these two body styles have in common. The top is very different [the roadster pickup did not come with a collapsible top, and the span (from front to back)is larger on a roadster as well], as is the seat back. As for the seat bottom, I am not certain, but I believe that this is different as well. Hope this helps.

the windshield is the only common item between a roadster and a open pick up. The top is completely different and will not interchange.
Check Snyders website for the seat bottom spring applications. They are the manufacturer. I believe they are different dimensions and will not interchange, the part # will tell you that.

Yes sir, I'm getting the top covered at this time

That is not 1929.
