  1. It is certainly not a Marmon like the one in Woodfiddler's pics - that has its headlights mounted on stands like Buick and Cadillac used. I now think it is not a Willys-Knight at all but is in fact a 1929-30 Dodge DB Senior Six.

    I see what you see now nz. Not a Marmon as I guessed. I like the possibilities of your Dodge, just that bumper throws a curve. Still looking, thanks for the feedback.

    We're still trying Leif - hang in there.

  2. I have to respectfully disagree. I believe that the top does go down.

    West - Roadster, Convertible Cabriolet, Sport Coupe - can you explain and/or show us the differences? I cannot disagree with either of the above nor can I find a definitive differentiation! * HELP *

  3. 1934 Chevrolet Delivery Van? Is that what this body is called / referred as? Were they 1/2 ton only or could they be 3/4 ton or did they even offer the different choices back then? Obviously there was the bigger 1 ton(?) trucks, some with duals, but the artillery wheels with huge tires, why would they have been chosen? Just to increase the 1/2 ton capability and eliminate the wire wheels? Ideas anybody? Inquiring minds want to know! Thanks everyone for your input.

  4. Thank you Wayne, Happy Christmas and Merry Holidays to you too. I hope I didn't get any grease on your living room furniture. Thanks for this great place, the conversation and the coffee. Now back to work - man-hug to all (you've seen it, us Veterans do it frequently). :D

  5. West - thank you for your time that you have devoted to this chassis id question. I found this link most interesting, tho I have no definitive input. Maybe the experienced folks will have an idea on whether to eliminate the Studebaker-Garford.

    I hope this helps as I am somewhat "sick-of" looking at this chassis/frame! (meant in a good way, no disrespect intended)

  6. RJ – I too, want to thank you for sharing this photo of your Grandmother. It’s a great photo and Gram was a happy, photogenic subject. Her smile, her focus away from the camera and her charisma all shine thru and certainly make you overlook the car (whatever it is) in the background. Thanks again! :D<O:p</O:p

  7. They called them an auto-hobby shop on most US military installations across the country. Four to 12 bays, some with lifts, many tools to sign out and an attendant that was firm, fair and intelligent. Always seemed to work well!

  8. Amanda - can you elaborate on your assistance project? What museum, how many cars / bikes etc? Why would they need all cars identified (the work that you are doing)? One would think that a museum would have a detailed listing showing everything they have and the history of the acquisitions of all the displays. Maybe I'm thinking ideally, I don't know! Please don't be offended - I love looking at the cars, but the stories they could tell are compelling too! Thanks to everyone for sharing their expertise for this project. I am learning alot from everyone.
