Went and visited a friend whose father opened a yard many years ago and still has some old cars laying around. I believe the one body is a 28-29 cabriolet?? The other pics has a rear clip sitting in another body, I'm not up on them but they look like a pair of 32 Ford bodies, either a sedan or vicky. I'll the experts here weigh in on what they think they are. I have made an offer on the cabriolets, he has 2 of them. I'll post some more pics soon.
Looks like the possible remains of a B-400 in a couple of pictures. If true they could be worth a bit to complete a car. Frank
the model A is a sports coupe. the cabriolet roadster had pillars that folded down so it didnt have a window frame.
I've been comparing pictures to the bodies in pics 6-7 and the body lines and window frames look like a 32 rear end, obviously missing the roofs, they could be laying around in the piles of tim, I haven't looked hard enough yet. If they are not 32 Ford, any ideas?
Looks like a goldmine to me! A lifetime of project cars! Sport coupe, B 400, Merc, 51 Chevy's, Stude, etc. Dig around for early sheet metal panels and other early take off parts (in the buses and truck trailers). I'd be searching for 50's cars/trucks that may have a Hemi too. One things for sure; get the good stuff and get it out of the weather/snow so its viable for the future!
the spare tire carrier on the back of that peeled back sedan is NOT Ford ... no idea what though, look for a body tag on the cowl I do not see a B-400 in these pics, just a 2 & a 4 door sedan without the roofs, NOT a convertible sedan ... B-400:
No, looks like a '56 Ford four door...and that could be a B-400 body in pic # 6. I dunno, it looks like a B-400 and/or it's definitely a short quarter window...could it be a Vicky body..??? That's a '60 Chevy flat roof four door hardtop, next to the Corvair in pic # 3, post # 9... R-
Those parts aren't '32 Ford; B-400, Vicky, or otherwise. They're some less-popular brand that used a stationary fabric top on its sedans.
