    I recently bought a 1931 Model A Fordor slant window. I am really drawn to the 32 rails/chassis.. so my question is obvious, will the 32 chassis fit my 31 fordor?
    Also if so anyone got any tips on where I could pick one up?
    Thank you for your time!

    i think it will fit you just gotta do some modifications like the other a bodies.
     
  3. yes it will fit you have to pinch the frame about 3/4 of an inch on each side. wescott has some good frame dimensions on there website. the other ting you are going to need to do is the modify the rear subframe to sit down over that kick up in the rear. but do as much reaserch as you can before you tackle it.
    this web site will help you out alot and has some great shots of the build. ROLF is the man
