    Well heres some pics. The guy that had this said it was a Ford. After lookin at it I think its a chev? Hope someone here can tell us.It has a 6 cyl ohv motor on the side is a cast in bowtie.There is a badge on the cowl that says body by fisher.Yes we are dissapointed cause We cant own no chevs so we will just sell it.It was all in parts so we screwed and tacked it together to see what it looked like. Could make a cool little deathrod i spose.

    Years ago (probably close to 15) I helped a buddy build one of those. We got a bunch of patch panels from a place called Experi-Metal. They were stamping out everything from quarters to deck lids. I don't know if theyr'e still around but their parts were killer!

    WELL?

    I think its either a little newer or a little older than 32 cause I searched for pics of 32's and their hoods have about 4 side vents and yours has louvers. Heres a place for glass body panels if your needin'. PANELS

    $400.00 If it was a Ford sombody probably would.
    But a chev probably not. I saw a pic of a 33 chev the door corners at the top were round.So 31 it is.
    When did chev start with OHV motors? That surprised Me.
    Thanks for the info Guys.--- FEDER
     
  18. I think you still did good... sucks it aint Ford, but still cool.

    I think it is a '31 too.
     
  21. By the way, if you have the chrome cap for the crank hole cover, it is worth a lot of money to restorers. From your 3/4 front pic, the crank hole tube (A sheet metal cylinder that fits over the hole in your splash aproon) and the chrome cap are not mounted. See if it is in the your "Box of extras".

  23. Itsa 31. 31 and 32 shared the same body but 31s had a visor [like model a's] and 32s didn't. 31's had the one piece headlight bar and 32's had a double bar. 31's had louvered hood side panels and 32's had 4 vent doors on the side panels.. a nice piece tho...........
