Purchaser doesn’t on this 36 cabriolet…other than inevitable “Dodge” any ideas. ( I know it looks it in the photo but the grille surround is not chrome it is blue and it’s morning sun reflection off a white building).
They weren't on all 39 Dodge cars though they were on the D11 Luxary liner. This one on Ebay as an example.
It is a bit odd. No windshield frame. It almost looks as if they tried to do a vee'd windshield ...with that bent gl***??? Do you mean the top of the rear quarters as well?
...True. I just think the hood has been modified. Look at the rear fender images. Feels like a '36 body to me.
I should have never posted a photo of the car. The new owner called it a 36 but the headlights are 37 and so was the dash and the way the hood opened so could easily be a 37 with a 36 grille but kept the 37 fenders by the original builder.(not a ft clip change) …it’s a very nice “CUSTOM” car from the Midwest purchased bought a buyer at an action and trucked here to SoCal. It’s not a new car. It’s powered by a SBF that appears stock right down to the air cleaner with factory decals. From what I saw, an auto trans and AC . When he drove it in the top was up and the owner flipped 2 latches and manually put it down. Funny when guys tried to figure out the tail lights I laughed and told them the standard HAMB answer….Who knew I was right!
