Gypsy Curtain Patterns for a 26-27 Roadster

Post by DontKnowMuch » Sun May 16, 2021 11:57 am

Does anyone have a pattern for the Gypsy Curtains for a 1926-27 Roadster?

I found some good pictures on this forum but not a pattern with dimensions.
Thanks

Let me know if you need anything else. I don’t know much as I just got them and haven’t even held them up to the car yet.

Thanks for posting these pictures. I did not see these until this morning. Can you measure one of the angles?? I am very rusty on my geometry.
Thanks

If you get the exact measurements of the inner triangle you can use this link to calculate the angles. Since the width of the each frame piece forms parallel lines the outer triangle would have the same angles. All the pictures with the tape measure need to be more accurate. https://www.calculator.net/triangle-cal ... &x=68&y=23
Here is an example:
