Does anyone know if the running boards and floor are the same for all 1936 Standards, sedan AND roadster?
And can anyone recommend a manufacturer of these?

According to my US parts book all FC models use the same running boards. Part numbers are 601957 (Left side) and 601958 (right side). These appear to be unique to '36 Standards and are not interchangeable with other years and models.
Floor pans are listed for all FC models. There are two listings, one for Jobs 361209-19 and another for Jobs 361201-11. I do not know the difference between the two numbers.
Please note however that my book does not list the '36 Roadster as a separate model whereas the listing for the '35 Roadster is shown. Be aware that I cannot state with certainty if the US edition is applicable to the Aussie models in this regard.
I do not think anyone is making many replacement sheet metal pieces for the mid-30's cars. At best you might find a 'smoothie' running board that the hotrodders use.
Hope this helps a bit.

In the USA the roadster and phaeton models were dropped in late 1935.  :) :grin:

36 Roadster
By what I have been able to find out the bodies were manufactured here in Aus by Holden and possibley using the US 35 specs. my 38 truck has what appears to be a US chassis with Holden body 127. Sedans may not be done the same but it would be advisable to check.

Years ago I saw a '36 roadster in Wailuku, Maui and I think it was left hand drive. The last time I was there, I asked a former club member about it and he said that the long time owner had died and the car had been painted white by its new owner. The member didn't know where I could see it but it was still in Maui...Another member from our region probably has pictures of it because he saw it before I did....
