    Hi Guys,

    New here. Just picked up this cowl from a local farmer's scrap pile and I've seen some keen eyed guys on here before being really good at identifying them so I'm wondering if any of you would know what this is ....

    The overall shape and size looks very '23-'25 T to me but the firewall ribbing doesn't look right for one of those ... or at least, I don't think it is?!?! Any ideas?

    ya gotta remember that more than 200 automobile companies went out of business in the great depression. It could be any of those

    I know ... but I'm sure we can narrow it down from 200 :D ... also, doesn't have a cowl vent so that narrows it down a bit too. As far as I can tell, it's not Ford, not Dodge, not Chevy, not Studebaker, not Essex ... I was hoping someone might recognize that "sundial" pattern on the firewall

    :D ... You wouldn't happen to have a "NotFord" badge I could use as a rad shell emblem, would you?

    not sure what it is, but looks like a good start to a roadster.

    Hopefully @VANDENPLAS won't read this. "It's always a Dodge"
