Anniston Alabama

 

weren't they more square down the sides?

 

Wow! Would I love to have that. Looks to be about a 35 I think.

 

Photos shamelessly pinched from the net (again) ... 1936 Ford CX sedan, in NZ

I saw a write up on the '60 somewhere, it might have been here or on AACA. It's a hearse that was custom built in either Europe or South America.

 

Found this.

So you’re saying it’s the time of the season?

 

Open season.....

 

From the Interweb,,,

 

First off I will say this is a well put together website for car enthusiasts. Second I will say I know absolutely nothing about any of these vehicles in these pictures. I am not a car enthusiast by any means, however I am a photographer and a lot of my pictures are of old cars. I was hoping for some help in determining the year of the car in this photo. I know it's a Fleetline. But I have had a few ppl on Facebook where I am selling copies of the photo tell me different year models. I thought it was a '42. Then told '46. Then told '48. It would be nice to be able to put the accurate year in the listing. The sides were all painted with graffiti or else I'd have more photos to help identify it. By the way, I found your website by doing a google search of 'what year is my fleetline'. I'm glad I stumbled upon this place. I love cars, but my car knowledge is not on par with my photography knowledge. Thanks for any help and good day.

 

48.

 

Yes,,1948 Stylemaster.Not a Fleetline.

 

Ummm The window shape you posted doesn't match. The bottom corners are right angles. What I posted has a rounded corner. Also what you posted has no spotlight on the driver's side and has vertical guards on the bumper.

 

Not to start a pissing contest but if you look closely at the bumber you can see where bumber guards were attached. It looks like someone needed them and removed them. In J hansens posting the windshield glass bottom corners are rounded. As far as the spotlight question is concerned, I believe those are after market, Appleton perhaps.
Someone will school me if I am wrong.

 

More from the Web....

 

These are really spooky!

 

More from the Crypt... They've been there a long while. Wonder what the story is...bet it's interesting.

 

Looks like they were burnt up.

 

You might be able to guess where I live when I say that I don't see any bolts in that roof.

 

The last batch posted by J Hansen look like French cars, maybe hidden from invading Germans during WWII?

 

That is the story I read on these cars, but there were some later additions. They are in a quarry or mine in France if I recall correctly https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a...e-could-have-been-hidden-during-world-war-ii/

One of the mine cars is a 1936 CX Ford sedan, just like the one from NZ that I posted a couple of days ago. One of these three photos is from the link to the Car and Driver article (provided by 327Eric) on the mine cars.
