    I was looking at a shops junk yard today and found this. The guy did not speak much english but said it was a Chevy, I thought it was a Ford. Does anyone know what it is? Thanks

    P.S. I was interested in the complete front axle.[​IMG]

    Looks like a 47-48 FORD to me...

    Possibly a 42 also unless someone can narrow it down by the remaining details.

    What is is worth? The guy said he wanted $1500 but all I want is the front axle complete.
     
  8. I'm thinking 47-48 because of the stainless on the fender. 46 and earlier had ribs in them. ( I think)

    42-47 Ford. Not 48 because they had tube shocks beginning in 48 (right?).
     
  10. If it was complete and not rusty, then maybe $1500, but half the car is missing! Maybe I'm cheap.

    It isn't worth $1500 though, unless you are dying to get one of those cars.

    Anyone have a set of square spindles, backing plates and drums instead of me paying through the nose for this one.

    '47 Tudor complete less engine has to be worth a grand ... if the rest of the sheet metal is there, make an offer.
     
  15. Easy to find in the H.A.M.B. Classifieds.

    Really, cause I have been searching the classifieds and everything is sold.
     
  17. 47

    41 and 42 the divider bar for the wind wing was attached to the glass, that one appears to be fixed. Also 41's have an exposed running board the full length of the rocker, this one doesn't.

    Also I am leaning to 47 because of the skinny trim door handle.
