    This is another '35 Plymouth coupe I did for my neighbor. A rust bucket that was rearended at some point in it's life. He originally wanted to go no front clip, but rear fenders. But after we got the rear fenders straightened, radiused, and painted, he decided he liked the whole car fenderless much better.

    First wife's brother gave me a driver he and his bud were going to do way back in 62. Some jerk had cut out the sheet metal below the trunk opening and put a wooden box in to haul gravel, (idiot). My younger brother moved in with me in his junior year of high school so I gave it to him to drive to school. In his senior year he forgot the antifreeze, so long little flattie 6 banger. I never got around to doing anything with it, but did haul it around from place to place, I think these little coupes have a lot going for them and I really like them, the 35 and 36. I finally gave it to a welder working for me. Wish I still had it!!
    Super job your doing on the ol' girl so far.

    Thanks for asking but I have more than enough projects already. Maybe someone else on here wants to scope it up...

    Looks like you did a really nice job straightening that body out.

    Looks like mid sixties custom rod perfection. Great job.

    Somehow missed this one. Amazing details all over it! Carb clamps, springs, wiring, it is all well thought out. I like those rear quarter lines! Great job all over. I have to ask, what is the license plate? Doesn't look like 1935 CA, more like a Euro style.

    Yep, as J Hansen already pointed out it's Swedish, which is where it was built and exists

    Decided to put it up for auction at Swedish auction site bidders highway dot com. Could help with international shipping if anyone's interested. The listing is up and goes live in four days. Not sure if I'm allowed to share links here?

    That's got a really good ratio of tuck and poke to the rear tires

    The auction did not meet my reserve, so have listed it for sale instead in a few places, including the H.A.M.B. Marketplace
