    i was first told it was a 33plymouth. then a guy told me i was wrong it is a 34plymouth. but things just dont add up. my doors dont look like either one of those years of that make.

    if you notice in the picture. there is a body line on the top edge of the door. door handle is located below the middle belt line of the door also. i recieved the car in poor condition and i have since modified the fire out of it. really its whatever i wanna call it because it doesnt reassemble anything now. but i would like to know for sure what it started off as.

    as you can also see someone welded the rear doors up. it was a four door but now a 2dr.

    ford ranger drive train. fits the car rather well.

    the door is being stretched 8inches to fit my longer body/legs. plus it gives the car a smoother look i think.

    here is a picture of the door

    Hey dude,
    You have a 1932 Plymouth. Pity the rear doors are welded shut.

    Look at the door handles on yours and the ones in the pic below.
    The 33-34 had the handles between the 2 beltlines.

    Hi..It is a 1932 Plymouth model PB 4dr sedan. Someone was trying to make it into a sedan delivery by welding the rear doors on.
    Just an idea, would it have not been eaiser to move the seat back for your long legs instead of moving the body forward and creating a sheet metal nightmare?
    It does not resemble anything to a ford guy but looks like a 32 Plymouth to me!
    Have fun thats what its all about.....
     
  13. Does it have the serial tag on the right doorjam? That's the best way to ID early 30s Mopar by year.
     
  14. For what ever itmaybe worth, my friend has a 34 coupe, and the A pilar is much different from the one on yours...good luck!

    Its a plymouth, and it is a real shame you cut the front doors......

    You should send me the inner structures before you hack up the passenger one!

    ** Edit, I see yours is hacked out already too.... Damn! **

    I agree, It would have been much easier to move the seat back. there should have been plenty of room as the rear seat on those four doors were set clear to the back of the body.
