    I picked this up a month or so ago. I already have a ford sedan im working on but id like to know what it is. Its not ford to my knowledge. Im leaning towards a chevy. The fenders on the back were bondo'd on. It was rigged up to sit on a ford chassis. Any help would be great. It seem to have had wood floors. Not sure if it holds any value or not as a project roadster hotrod. I liked it. Thanks in advance.

  2. IMHO the whole rear of it is cobbled up.

    Could be Chevy, could be something else, there were several cars that had the wide pair of beads down the side.
     
  3. The body lines on the doors/rear quarters are '27-'28 Chevrolet

    I used pieces of that same body to build my RPU Family Truckster:
