Maybe the confusion arises from the terminology. Note in Don's post that it is a club cabriolet, not a cabriolet club coupe.

IMO, from a styling perspective the '36,'37 and '38 club cabriolets suffer from having too much 'greenhouse' relative to their wheelbase/body lengths, whereas the cabriolets of those model years have a very good balance between their 'greenhouses' and their wheelbase/body lengths.

And while it is heresy coming from me, the same applies to '32 3-window coupes and Victorias.
