I've come across a guy that inherited a ton of great old parts- parts from just about everything 30's thru 60's. The guy doesn't know much about...

I happen to run across a guy selling a '28-'29 sedan outside of town that had been made into a pickup. They had just cut off the back of the sedan...
What about a '26-'27 sedan body, how well would that mate up? I'm finding some half bodies but not my year model.

How well would a '30- '31 sedan cab mate up to my cab? Just to open up my options.
