are the roof of a D24 and P15 the same

[p15estep]

I have a friend that has a real nice 47 Dodge 4dr. and this past summer a bad wind storm came thru and a large tree limb crushed the frontdriver's side of the roof in. i found a 47 Plymouth 4dr. parts car. will the roof off the plymouth fit the dodge. thanks for the help

If this may help you, I know for certain that the D24 roof headliner bows are wider than that of a Plymouth P15 and therefore would believe they are different..the Dodge is just a tad larger than the Plymouth in most respect...

I wonder could they just cut out the damaged area and maybe the P15 partial roof piece might work.

Roof lines are TOTALLY different, different angles on the A post different curvature on the l-r sides--- be better off patching in - or a hydrolic ram and pushing it back into place--plenty of good steel to work with--

Looking at my parts book the roof panel for the P15 is the same for the same 2 dr/4 dr Plymouths for the years of '42 thru '48. Part Number 988 239. I also see this as the same part number for a 40 Dodge.

These are the roof panels with the drain troughs.

I think maybe the trunk handles are the same on P15-D24. The bumper bolts are even different.

There a few parts that MoPar used on all their lines in the 40s. The trunk handle is one of them. I'm using a '48 Chrysler handle on my P-15. Bolts right on!
