  16. I have no idea what the situation is here but, leaving something to be picked up later does not always end well. Buddy bought a rolling chassis and was going to "go back later" for the Model A Tudor body (that was chained to a tree) and it went missing. I'd suggest you find a way to get it all now ... just sayin' :)

    Luv the wraparound dash in the other cowl! You need to incorporate that into the build somehow, someway.

  24. Not to rain on your parade- looks like you get enough rain already- just a point of interest/clarification, Mopar didn’t start until 1937. I am pretty happy that I also own a pre mopar plymouth- 1935 slant back two door coach. Looks like the start of a unique project!

    I believe that the term "Mopar"... even though not coined until 1937... is now generally considered to be all-inclusive for anything built by Chrysler Dodge Plymouth DeSoto. There is no blanket term for pre-'37 models. So Mopar it is.

    Only used the term mopar because the quarters may be chrysler or something else...not sure...otherwise its dodge bros
     
  27. Dodge.

    As VANDENPLAS would add ---

    There off a dodge , pick any year any model , car , truck whatever.

    it’s always a dang dodge .

    That's a score, great price and being able to find the pieces all at one time is a bonus. Any pieces have a vin you can use ?

    I think maybe your son is already a true hot-rodder. Looks like he feels the same as many of us here.
    No roadster... not happy.
    Behind the wheel of a roadster...
    ...much better. :)
