Need to replace both the front torque boxes for my 1970 convertible. What I've seen on line from Sherman and others excludes the convertible . Do you know of anyone that makes them, or do you have drawings or sketches that I could use to have them made?

I might just be wrong, but will say it for sakes of discussion hopefully for you to come up with a solution,
Been a long time since I seen and played with a convertible, but isn't the torque box the same as a hard time plus a brace welded on to it? again, been a long time since I seen one. |

See what the ones for a 69-70 mustang look like.
67-70 mustang, 66-69 falcon, 66-69 fairlane/torino are all derivatives of the same chassis. I don't think the 70-71 torino changed structurally, also not sure whether the steering was the only change for 71-73 Mustang

All 70-71 Torque boxes are the same. It doesn't matter if it's a convertible, fastback or Ranchero. They are all the same.
