just sneaking in.. 1948 Dodge B1 Woodie (its forsale)

 

What are you asking for the woody?

 

The 1st one is my 47 DeSoto. That has been setting,I started 25 years ago, I have not finished it.
the otherone is just one I saw and thought was cool.

Plymouth coupe.

 

Australian TJR 40 Dodge sedan i picked up for spares.

 

This is my extremely rare Australian TJR 1940 Dodge Businessman Coupe or Doctors Coupe, it is body number 7 of 12 made. It has a golf door on the Australian passenger side (left). The Australian Dodge used a lot of Plymouth parts like fenders, hood, taillights, headlights. If you have a look at the body you can pick out a lot of differences from the Australian body to the American body style, like the door B pillar post. It is a lot of car that was strictly a two or three seater with only a bench seat in the front. And i just love the split rear window.

 

That 40 is sweet!!! Are you gonna build it???

 

Yes i will be building it, out of all the cars i own, this is my favorite car of all time, i will be doing a full restoration on the body back to original, keep the Plymouth fenders but put Dodge headlights on it along with DeSoto tail lights, and do a really trick hot rod chassis underneath and run a big Hemi in it.
Thanks for asking. Kenny.

 

This is the Australian 1940 Dodge Coupe Ute, unique to Australia.

 

Very nice!!! You've got some really awesome plans for her. Sounds like you'll do it right

 

My 41 Chrysler Windsor and 48 Dodge Club Coupe. The 37 Plymouth coupe and snagged tooth DeSoto are long gone.

 

I reallly love this car a lot, i have been buildiny it in my head for a very long time, my plan is to start on it in 5 to 6 years time, it should be perfected mentally by that time and my other projects will be out of the way to make a start on it. Well, thats the plan anyway. Thanks, Kenny.

 

OUCH ! That poor old DeSoto had a bad hit, knocked all its teeth in.
