    My father wanted to build a 30/31 coupe so we pieced together a body with a cowl, 2 doors, 2 quarters, a rear window panel, a visor, sub-frame, a gas tank all from different cars. No two pieces came from the same car. Then we found a 32 frame for it and grille and shell and dash, still all from different cars. There's no telling how many cars donated to this one build. It took over 10 model A coupes to donate parts just for the body.
