Default 1930 kick panel dimensions

The first photo shows the the three kick panels that go in the rumble seat area. The second photo shows the dimensions I'm trying to find. I would like make the kick panels will fit around the rumble seat hinge before ordering the upholstery.
Thanks

The issue you have is when I compare your panels to my A-41664 & A-41665 print, your shape of the panel board does not match what is on the print. Do you think you should verify the print number as correct and order it from Benson where you can start over?

I don't have a print of the rumble seat kick panels, that is what I'm trying to find. The photo was on Classtique Upholstery's web site and I added the dimension lines in the area I think there will be a problem. The shape of the Classtique's kick panels aren't the same as what I've seen in other cars. If you have a print, I would sure appreciate having a copy. If makes any difference, the kick are for a 1930 Cabriolet rumble seat area.
Thanks

Ethically I cannot share a copy of a print I have obtained from Benson as per a signed agreement. If you purchase a print from them, you will need to sign a the same document. Buying the print is part of the way they are funded and they own the copyright.

With that said, you will need to start by reversing the direction. You will need to go to the Body Parts List book and search in the Quarter section for the finished panel for a 68-B. Once you have the number, you will go to the Bensen Library and pull the print on microphiche which will be the assembly drawing. On that print it should list each of the components that makes up the assembly. Find the number for the Deck Side Cardboard. Buy the print or make notes from the drawing and you will have it. FWIW, I am not sure what Colleen used to make her patterns, however they are not close to what Ford used. They will work, but they just aren't authentic looking.
