30DodgePanel Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Looks like a 1938 Ford Coupe to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curti Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 How about a 39 standard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pomeroy41144 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 It is a 1938 Standard. The tan car is a 1938 De Luxe. The second (coupe) is a 1938 Standard. The third is a 1939 Standard. The louvers don't butt up against the trim on the 1938 De Luxe, but they do on the 1938 Standard (and on the subject of the photo). Note how the 1939 Standard has stainless trim where the subject car does not. The evidence is clear: the car in the original photo is a 1938 Ford Standard.

Dave Mellor NJ Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The fender is also different on the 38 DeLuxe and the 39 Standard. See how it's truncated in the back while the 38 Standard used the 37 fender which slopes gracefully to the running board.Compare to the tan car above.
