that red one above is cool , over here in aus a guy put a 34 sedan front on a 34 pickup cab , he did a nice job but it looked so wrong

 

1935 cab available, see post 25 in this thread.

Well, after doing 2 '33 sedan deliveries I am going to jump into the truck with p*** car sheet metal project, actuslly 2 of them. I am hoping to do one as a roadster pickup and one as a regular pickup. I have all the '34 body dies from L***e now and am in the initial stages of planning. Thanks for all the input !

 

I 've got all the parts gathered to make a 33 Cabriolet highboy pickup, now to find the time to do it!
I'll be using parts from a Don Babb cabriolet cowl and doors, 35-37 Ford pickup cab back , and the front floor from a tudor. Similar to my old 32 rdst pu, only a little bigger in the interior space.

 

Firstly, - thanks for coming back to update your original thread.
May I ask, - What do you mean by having all the ‘34 body dies, - that seems a pretty significant acquisition.
Will you be producing body’s for others or just your own use ?

 

Build a 34-35 Dodge PU. One of the sleeker looking PU"s ever built.

 

and it has a factory chopped top

 

Hard to beat!

 

HI,
I bought a really rough '33 Ford sedan delivery and needed to make a bunch of panels. Luckly I ran into Lazze and he was able to supply all the body dies I needed. He makes all the the dies for the '33/'34 Ford now. The dies are pretty expensive but now I can make the exact piece I need and not have to worry about if it will fit.I amplanning on a '34 roadster pickup and a '34 pickup both with p*** car front sheetmetal. I do not like the proportions of the rear on the SAR roadster pickup cab. I only work on my projects, no outside work.
HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

 

That is perfect. Mine will be Cordoba Tan.
