Hi. I'm from Argentina. I have a 1928 Chevrolet two-door in very poor condition and the idea is to modify it to make a coupe. Therefore can anyone tell me the following measurements in inches or centimeters?. Thank you very much. Sorry for my poor English. ![[Linked Image from ebrestauraciones.com.ar]](http://www.ebrestauraciones.com.ar/IMG_7550.JPG) ![[Linked Image from ebrestauraciones.com.ar]](http://www.ebrestauraciones.com.ar/IMG_7530.JPG) ![[Linked Image from ebrestauraciones.com.ar]](http://www.ebrestauraciones.com.ar/IMG_7521.JPG)

Welcome to Chatter.
The car pictured appears to be in too good a condition to modify.
Leave it as a 2 door and REPAIR anything that may not be as it should be.
Basically dont ruin a good car.

Going by his posting,he has a 1928 2 door Sedan or Coach,and what he has must be poor enough condition that he wants to change the body style to either a Business Coupe,or a Sorts Coupe.

The photo I post is not my car is a car I found on internet. I use it only to illustrate the measures. My car does not work more like the original car so I decided to rebuild their bodywork with a model I like. Sorry again for my poor English.

I understood that you wanted to replace the body with another that you fabricated. I have a '28 Coupe, unfortunately it is stored 120 miles away so I can't get measurements until maybe next week.

Sorry,
I knew there was something I was forgetting to do when I was there for a few hours last week. Should go back either later this week or early next week. Got to do more mowing.
I have your pictures with desired dimensions printed out. That will help me remember.
