Hi I am trying to identify the roadster in the pictures It is about 1932 Ford size, has a rumble seat and vents in the cowl sides. Currently sits on a late 30’s truck frame. Original dash has been torched out (now has 3/16" plate welded in with gauge holes). I don't have a whole lot of info on it, neither did the seller. Anyone familiar with this body?
Lol. One hefty frame. Looks like a cool hot rod in the making. Mount your seat where your sitting and it looks like your legs will be comfortable.
Ha, it sure is a large frame, will need modifying or swapping out to get the look i'm after. That's my son in the car who is 6' 3" so yeah that is a consideration but there is plenty of leg room!
I'm told its a '38 Ford truck frame. It will either be modified or replaced. Yeah think the body has potential
The more times I look at your pics the more and more I like it. It's sort of refreshing to see a roadster with that much room and the body lines and rear fenders just give it a great looking character .
Saw it at a swap meet and it just looked right as it sat, though it will get some mods of course, the frame especially
That would look good on a modified Deuce gram. Probably have to widen the frame to fit. r Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
the belt line looks like 31 Chrysler the 2 small side doors look 30 Chrysler ish Desoto also had those 2 small side vents its hard to tell cause almost all the pics you look up these cars have dual side mount spares yours has the holes for those a lot of chrystlers had 2 vent/doors on top of the cowl in front of the windshield has anything been filled there? do the side vents look like they were born there?
Anthony the side vents are factory. Not sure on cowl will have to check as there was some bonds on top of the cowl which could be hiding something I guess
