1936 Viper Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I recently bought a 1936 D2 TS 29K original miles. I have often come to this site to look for answers to my questions, so figured it was time to throw my hat in the ring an join. Car in pretty good shape, new paint, need a brake job not sure of the extent and a tell tale drip from the rear main seal area, probably needs rear pinon seal also, So will be postin questions to come 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Cool skirts. And a paint match to boot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpage Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 But not Dodge skirts. Dodge skirts don't have the chrome strip at the bottom but do share the winged emblems but they should fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankenmess! jpage, That was several years ago when I was a bit hungrier than I am now, One of the daughters wants it and wont let me sell it now. This was my first build. I drug it out of the briars in the 70s. It is indeed a 37 grill, I have now located the crank cover. After that investment I cant afford to sell it. Not a mess by the way, very well sorted. I will take that as jealousy. Edited January 5, 2018 by JACK M (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpage Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 No, there's no jealousy here. We all have the privilege to do what we want and there is no accounting for taste. I just prefer the stock cars . To me it's a shame to alter an old car , but that's just me. There are so many altered cars out there that many have no idea what an original even looks like! It's just a history thing. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JACK M Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Didn't mean to be harsh. I often wish I had taken pictures when I spotted it in the blackberry patch. Totally disassembled with no running gear or front suspension. It was tangled up in a bunch of old fencing and other scrap metal. (not to mention the blackberries) At least it was free, but I had to take all the scrap to get the remains of the car. Took me a few days to get it all out of there. That must have been around 1980.

Jim z Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 (edited) I too just came up with a 1936 dodge coupe kind of a barn find and I am looking forward to learning more about this vehicle.

1936 D2 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Hey "1936 Viper" Lee, Ever get the brakes sorted out? Been driving it at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in PA Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 The two coupes pictured in this thread are obviously different. Frankngin's coupe has a short driver's door window while JACK M's has a much longer window. At least to my eye. Is this a rumble seat vs. non-rumble seat issue? If not, what are the two body styles shown? Curious minds want to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpage Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 According to my parts book, both the rumble seat coupe and the bus.coupe use the same doors which are specific for those body styles. I think it's just the camera angle that makes one look slightly wider. All body styles except the conv. and conv. sedan use the same window regulator.

1936 Viper Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Hey "1936 Viper" Lee, Ever get the brakes sorted out? Been driving it at all? 1936 D2 still working on car after a big flood last Jan. Getting back to where I was a year ago. Running gear all good. Either my fuel pump decided to die or float valve clogged. Not getting fuel to float bowl. Will try fuel pump rebuild and then if no luck carburetor rebuild. Then ready to do brakes and wheel bearings over. Long slog but getting there . Have another post documenting after flood restoration. Amazingly resilient cars.
