Guest outlaw car man Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Would any of you guys & gals know if the 1932 DL6 had an accessory trunk available. Maybe something like the Potter trunk with extension for the rear mounted spare.Anyone see one mounted ? Thanks,S Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I have seen a trunk rack on a DL, but no trunk. I believe you could get a trunk rack as a "dealer option" in '32. I don't think that Dodge offered an actual trunk to put on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Yep, thanks- My DL doesn't have welled fenders. Just a thought, I love the trunks on the 30s stuff. Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 The car I saw was in San Diego a few years ago and it didn't have welled fenders either. The rack had extension brackets of some sort on it that held it out past the rear mounted spare tire. The rack looked typically Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth or DeSoto of the early thirties with the folding abilities....just longer mounting brackets. The owner said it was original to the car and that he was the second owner of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Interesting, thanks-With the rack down and a trunk mounted, probably wouldn't fit in the garage !!! Be fun to find the rack, I'd mount it in a heartbeat. thanks for the reply.SJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yirgaman Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Sandy, I looked in the MasterParts List - Accessories section (D1) and the factory offered 2 different styles of trunks for the DL, also listed the same trunks for the DH,DI,DG,DK,DP,DO 2 and 4 door sedans. One was top opening only and the other was side and top opening. Both trunks were made to work with the folding trunk rack and these varied by year and model (the DL's was different than Dk's and the sedans differnet than other models etc. for example). The part numbers are listed in the book, but I don't know where those would appear on the trunks - no pictures are shown.Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Hi Larry- Thanks. The rack would be the tough guy to find for our DL6. Standard trunk would not be so critical probably other then a Potter Manufacturing one with the molded to car rear. So, anybody got a rack for sale for my 32 DL6 ?
