30 or 31

I know its kinda stupid to ask but whats the difference between a '30 A and A '31 A? I got me a 2d sedan and the seller didn't really know what it was!

 

That's not even a Ford.

 

beat me to it

 

so then what is it?

 

Given the leaf spring mounts fore and aft I'd say Chevrolet.

 

I got some more pix!

 

wow... now I'm confuseder... it looks like a Chevy, but some of those parts look strangly Fordmaliar...

 

thats the way I pulled it out of guy's yard.

 

Looks like a 30 or 31 Plymouth or Dodge to me. I just know it ain't no Model A of any year.

 

A 29 Chevy maybe. Like this.

 

So, looks like the radiator has some sort of emblem on it. What's it say???

 

prolly not even American
how about posting a picture of the grill?

 

I think it didn't say anything on it. I guess what you see is just the hole where that hand cranking rod goes through

 

chop it

 

I dont have a better one then this and right know you are probably a lot closer to the car then I am

 

hell yea was just kinda curious what it actually is before i cut it up!

 

i think the dash will be what will determines that. i have never seen one like it.

 

I've got some pix from the inside too

 

That's no Chevy, too much steel in there! Probably some Mopar or orphan brand. Or if it's in Germany like you are, it may even be German. (whodathunk?)

 

I bought that body in VA from my neighboor and now it sits my yard. (in the US)

 

Looks like a match for 1931 Es***.

 

thx dude thats pretty much what it looks like

 

chop it 4", channel it 4" , z the frame, just get it lowww

 

here is my 31 ford tudor

 

Here's a quicky Photoshop of what I'd probably do if I had that. Sorry for the sloppiness. You've got yourself a sweet car there. Looks like it's pretty solid.

If you found it in Germany, how bout it being a Merc Benz? Do some research in the cl***ic car scene/market-see most hotrodders list of manufactuers dosent go much past Ford,Chev,Mopar. Good luck finding what it is. And if its rare and expensive chop it up lots make a cool hotrod out of it then it will be even more rare-the only hotrodded one in the world

 

He said he got it in Virginia and it's been ID'd as an Es***.

Thx for the photoshop thing! Thats pretty much what I am planning to do! just got to find me another frame because this one is kinda thin. But first I have to get my Buick rollin

 

Chrysler, Plymouth, Hudson, but the rear window is too rectangular for a chrysler product I think.
