keiser31 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Looks like by the number it is a Model PE. Those numbers start at 2188001 and go to 2397536. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Bonesteel Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 If the serial number is correct, you have a 34 PE Deluxe 4-Door Sedan, built in Detroit. If the serial number started with a 3, it would be Los Angeles manufacture. Other ways to confirm the model are if there is a glove box (if not, car is a PG), has the wind wing thumbscrew at the upper corner of the front doors and has windwings (could still be a PF or PFXX). The serial number does confirm it as a PE. Wheelbase should be 114" and the hood should have louvres and dual doors. If wheelbase is 108" with just louvres on the hood, car is a PF or PG. Both the PE and PF had independent, coil spring front suspensions, the PG had a tube axle and parallel leaf springs. Don't be confused by the one wiper, many of the 34s, including the Deluxe PE, only had one wiper, one tail light and one interior visor--the passenger side ones were options. Attached is a factory photo of a 34 PE Deluxe 4-door sedan. Welcome to the group! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
