I know someone can tell me what cowl this is .

I hope

I bought this cowl for the cross brace that is in between the two post's . i put the brace in my 30 coupe , but now when i try to put the dash rail in none of the holes line up .

any help would be great .

Maybe it is the angle of the pic, but it looks like a late 31 slant windsheild cowl to me. I am more versed in 28-29 bodies so I could be wrong. Rod

Yea , thats the only pic that i have . i bought the cowl site unseen and had the man cut the parts off and ship them to me . i was told ( by him ) that it was a coupe .

That is a Victoria or Slant sedan cowl. They are not the same width as a coupe.

How I know?? I bought a dash rail for my coupe, got it home and found that it was for a slant sedan. I wasn't paying attention to the ribs on the dash rail.

Now I know that on a coupe, where the top and bottom ribs meet in the center where the center bolt hole is, that area is much closer together on a coupe, and farther apart on a slant window vehicle. I believe the slant vehicle was a little narrower


And because of that, a coupe dash rail will not bolt into a slant window car. The holes don't line up!

Thanks Jason , i think you my have hit it on the head . the holes where the rail would bolt are further apart . I guess i will be looking for another one .

Thanks , thats what i needed . the brace does have less arch then the coupe as shown in those pictures and that is another problem i'm having . Another lesson learned .
