Hello to all. Does anyone know of a manufacturer that makes wood kits for the 29 chevy roadsters or what they cost? Thanks!

The few wood suppliers have been mentioned in this forum extensively (Jim Rodman, KC Wood etc.). I do not have personal experience with them nor do I know if they produce kits for open cars (open cars were not made by Fisher). Barring that you will either have to do it yourself or find some one competent enough to replicate the necessary wood. I am presently re-wooding a 1924 Star touring and have pictures of the work on my Facebook page "Automotive Wood Bodies". I have a website (www.automotivewoodbodies.com) but most pictures are on my Facebook page. I do not produce "kits" as I have found that original production QC (or lack thereof) and years of wear and tear usually does not allow wood copied from one car to exactly fit another and a great deal of custom fitting is typically required.
