'25 Dodge coupe - supposedly - for sale

[Dodgenz]

This has been for sale on and off for a couple of years or so...so I apologise if it's been posted before. Not really my cup of tea, but an interesting combination of vehicles! Anyone able to work out what the rest of the car is?- or what the original actually was, given that he has posted the number now (I don't remember seeing it before).

Kiwis are pretty good at keeping things going one way or another, so chopping things up and welding things up is not uncommon- you've gotta admire it for that even if it is a bit mutated! The best bit has to be the carpet on the doors I feel.

That is very interesting! The build date of the original car was mid March of 1925 having serial# A-284123. It appears someone knew what they were doing to customize the poor thing. Quite a high price as car would really need a thorough going over, but it is really unique. I can't quite recognize the body they used. Could it be a Topolino?

[Dodgenz]

Yes, it's a difficult one - the Topolino doors open the other way....and I've been looking though various shapes and years and can't quite work it out. It sort of has a '36 style to it, but the doors are more square than most 36 stuff, although UK stuff is a little more upright at the front...but the roof is higher - i'll keep looking!
