Default 28-29 roadster rumble area inside

Does anyone have pictures of the inside of a 28-29 rumble compartment showing the vertical braces?

Glenn,
Dudley posted a picture showing the 2 vertical braces on the post you made a day or two ago. Didn't you see it? The link is pasted in below. Here's the deal. The front brace is bolted to the quarter panel/panel above the trunk with 2 bolts. The top of the rear brace is riveted with two countersunk head rivets with the head under the rain gutter - peened toward the outer part of the car. Both braces are riveted on the bottom of the braces with 3/16" rivets (three rivets for each brace) to the subrails. Two rivets are installed from the top and one form the inner side of the subrail.

Yes I saw it and determined that I'm missing two of the braces. I ordered them yesterday. Thanks for the help.
