    While it would really nice in a 1927, it’s not correct for it. However, few people would know that if you don’t tell them!

    Dimensions needed!
    Thanks for your patience gentlemen.

    We need to know how wide the floor mats need to be to accommodate the Roadsters, and how much longer they need to be to fit the four door coaches.
    If I’ve missed any model that is larger, give me that dimension as well!
    Thanks much!

    I’ve got dimensions for the coupe,

    and the Briggs bodied Roadster. 
    The three dimensions for the RS Coupe are;

    19” seat base piano hinge to base of toeboard

    15-1/2” rear of shifter plinth to piano hinge 

    40” inside beads of scuff plates at the piano hinge 

    The Roadster is;

    20”

    16-1/2”

    43” respectively.

     We still need measurements for;
    Coach
    Convertible Coupe 
    Town Sedan 
    thanks so much to everyone that has helped make this happen so far!

    We have some more comprehensive dimensions for the Briggs Roadster floor mats.
    but before we can proceed we still need dimensions for the other body styles.
    Any further information on them would be greatly appreciated!

    WHY NOT GET 27, 28, 29. CARS, THEN 30 AND 31 and 32 ESSEX dimentions.

    While some OEM mats are actually different,  They could still have a nice matt.

    If 30, 31 and 32 are wider - some extra plain material would be a border.

    Also, the price per mat may be reduced, and more can have a nice mat.

    Lets hear from y’all1927-1932 owners!


    Your idea makes sense Hans, especially if it’s only a fraction of an inch. 

    If they are considerably larger in either direction that decision would be up to Dany to make. The material is expensive so it might only serve to increase the cost per unit. 
     I would speculate that there is not going to be a vastly difference among different years but if there was, it would be on the 1930-32 models.

    We now have dimensions for the coach thanks to another member!
    We just need dimensions for the town sedan next!

    Mr. Bessken took two more dimensions so I am ham handedly adding them to his nicely done drawing.
    We still need the dimensions for the Town Sedans if anyone would care to help with this project.
