What is the difference between a 1936 Cabriolet, Club Cabriolet, and Roadster? Thanks in advance, Abchurch

The Cabriolet has role up windows and no back seat. The Club Cabriolet has a back seat and the Roadster has side curtains (and no back seat). According to the V8 Album Ford made 14,068 Cabriolets, 4,616 Club Cabriolets and 3,862 Roadsters. This message was edited by deluxe40 on 1-6-11 @ 7:58 PM

The CABRIOLET has a fixed windshield,part of the cowl The ROADSTER and PHAETON have movable windshield that SWINGS OUT of the bottom. with stantions holding the windshield in place, my 3 cents worth, 37 RAGTOPMAN,and KEEP on FORDIN, In my way of thinking, I prefer a CABRIOLET you can roll out the weather, more driveable I enclosed a picture of a 36 CABRIOLET, it is a street rod, a friend of mine owns,but shows you the windshield and cowl of a 36 CABRIOLET This message was edited by 37RAGTOPMAN on 1-7-11 @ 11:24 AM

Neither the 36 roadster or phaeton has fold down windshields they did have swing out windshields. The cabriolets and convertible sedans had fixed windshields. I think the last fold down was the 32 model. There may have been after market fold downs. Don

I have a Cabriolet with the rumble seat but I think the Clubs have a trunk. I believe that windsheild and dashboard also fits the station wagon. Ken in Texas
