    It looks solid. If you don't want it, someone else probably will. They might even give you some cash in trade for it.

    Thanks guys. I'll let him know and maybe i'll post it up here in the classifieds for him. Cars older than 40's-50's kinda lose me.

    Windshield posts look slanted to me, I'd say a '31 Murray 4 door cowl.

    Regardless of what it turns out to be, it's still worth saving isn't it?

    Absolutley worth saving! What you may see as junk could be what someone has spent years looking for. If it is old it is always worth something to someone. At least woth a couple pictures.

    In the engine pic, looks to be a teardrop indent in the passenger side of the firewall.

  29. not a truck
    at least not the grill shell. trucks are painted
    its a 31 with 2 removable panels
    also it looks like a slanted windshield
    if the subframe is steel it would have been a 4 door sedan
    if it was wood it could have been a cabriolet of 400a
    tk
    i would be interested as well
    i want to make a slant window coupe
