    I actually need help Id'ing a couple of bodies. I stumbled across a couple cars and I'm just curious what they are and want to know for sure since I asked a few friends and got as many different answers.

    #1 I think is a 35ish chevy sedan?

    #2 I think is a mid 30s ford coupe?

  3. I think your right on the sedan but the coupe looks more dodge/plymouth to me. Tim
     
  4. Coupe ain't no Ford but sure got a nice roll cage.

    #51 was a '37-'38 Plymouth. The coach was a '34 Chev Master

    Body is Chevy Master going by rear fenders. Standard rear fenders are not as full, shape wise. 35s I think had tailpan as part of body, 34s didn't but could be other way round? Depression in firewall for engine gives it away as a Chevy.

  8. 35 Standard. Spot the differences.
    Second one looks like old stock car.

    THE SEDAN IS A 1934 CHEVY MISSING THE REAR SPLASH PANEL. 1935 DIDN'T HAVE A PANEL, IT WAS ALL SOLID BETWEEN THE FENDERS.
     
  12. Save both for sure. That stock car would be sweet sitting in front of my barn, great yard art if its rotation.
     
  13. somebody correct me if i am wrong. 34 cowl vent opened forward, 35 opened backward?
     
  14. I believe that you are correct. The '34 flipped forward and the '35 flipped back toward the windshield.

    I hate to say it but I think the stock car is bound for the scrapper. They've slowly been stock piling old washers and stuff around it. I've tried enquiring about it several times with no luck. It's behind an old run down mechanics shop in a very small town. The town used to have a circle track out on the city limits that shut down a very long time ago from what I've been told. It's now a cornfield, but you can still see the shape of it even when the corn is up.

    I hate to hear of history going to the scrap yard, and I hate to see it at scrap yard.
    That thing can still fling dirt, and would make a grown man a happy lad.

    I'd give them more for that Plymouth then they will ever get from the scrap yard. They would probably be lucky to get $50 for it these days, can't weigh more then 1000 lbs.

    We have an old dirt track here that was turned into a corn field a couple years ago! Gene
