What's up with the radiator? It looks like there is a radiator behind the original radiator?

That looks like an edge of another radiator, but it is simply a shadow on the passenger side of the radiator.

Keiser, there's something definitively wrong with that radiator. It shouldn't sit that far back from the radiator shell. Look at the view from the passenger side. On top of that, this is not the correct 1931 Dodge engine. A lot of money for something that is far from correct and needs work to boot.

Oh....I see what you mean now. I missed that completely. Looks like they put in a shorter Plymouth engine in it and moved the original radiator back to attach the hoses to.

I'd like to have a '31 Dodge coupe to go with my sedan, but the price seems high for needing so much work and missing major components.

The engine in the ad also has a full water jacket, remote oil filter, and down draft card.

The engine in the Ebay ad.

Here is where the above car for sale was found....

'31 Dodge also had a full water jacket and remote oil filter was an option. The give away on this car is that the engine is shorter and has the downdraft carb ( as was mentioned). I have a spare '31 engine, but don't want to put out this kind of money for a car with wrong drivetrain.

I saw about 20 engines for 31 plus the one we owned and not one had a full water jacket.

Not to be picky, but no....there is not a full water jacket on any 1931 Dodge DH6 engine. If you have one, can you please show us?

If you need an original drivetrain, I may be able to help you.

Sorry, I was thinking that you were referring to split front to back, not from top to bottom. You are correct, the '31 had a water jacket on the top end of the cylinders, not full length top to bottom.

Sold. 9,050.00. Someone got a great car for a good price.

Yes, they did. Long as it's a good buyer. 

That will make a nice car.
