Hi there. I recently picked up a 26 Chrysler. The roof had been cut off the body. I was able to get the body and roof section. I believe its either a Series 58 or 80. Is there anyway to find out from a frame number? Also where would said frame number be? Also Im in need a driver door. Any place on the web I can get body parts from? Thanks for your help in advance.

The engine serial numbers for the model 58 range from F-25000 to F-110000. The serial number foe the car may be stamped on the outside of the frame somewhere over the driver's side rear wheel.

In those days Chrysler's model numbers referred to top speed. The 58 was one of the smaller models, a 4 cylinder car that was replaced by Plymouth in 1928.

The 80 was the Imperial, a big luxury car in the Cadillac class. The 1926 80E had a 6 cylinder engine of 288 cu in. In 1928 it was advertised as the most powerful car in America, 112 HP.
