local tiquer hauled this home years ago... i traded around for it...we have no idea what make... note the u shaped beadwork under the quarter window... any ideas ?
googled, then hit images... many makes, not dodge, no wheelwell beadwork, says '29 or older, almost flat in the back says big car ? that u shaped reveal under the quarter window is unique... mostly wooden inner structure ? fairly long quarter window... any more guesses ?
not buick, chevy, chrysler, dodge, desoto, es***, franklin, graham paige, hupmobile, hudson, jordan, marmon, maxwell, pontiac, peerless, plymouth, rockne, roosevelt, studebaker, willys, willys knight, wippet, ... spent some time googling, nuthin !
Hmmmm... The double small beads that wrap around look Chevrolet to me but Smitty, if you are stumped, then it must be an odd ball!!
More than 200 automobile manufacturers went out of business during the Great Depression. Yours may have been in production for only a small run before folding
I saw one years ago in South Western Pa. and was told it was a LaGonda. I have no reference but my memory and I am old and forget $h1t.
you missed out Ford ! Oh and Rugby, Star, Durant! Durant family of cars included these plus Flint, Locomobile maybe Wolverine? My guess 1930-31 Durant
What are your plans for it? Looks to be fairly solid; hard to believe that people used to cut up cars like that...
may cut out the over frame subrails, heavier gauge steel, looks like they could work as a poor man's steadfast subrails...
