Vintageben Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 So this Chassis is part of the treasures I recently found but what year model is it as I have found at the same site 1928,29,30 reamains. Are there any features that may identify it? Any help appreciated thanks Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Harmatuk Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I think you are spot on, Mr. Keiser. I almost said, 30 CJ-6 till I saw the front spring hangers. Half of the gas tank cover is rusted away, also. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) The rear panel is definitely 1929 Chrysler. Edited February 22, 2018 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintageben Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 Thank you all for the help I may have few more items to identify next week when I hopefully pick up the rest of the stuff thanks again Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasha39 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I'd say a Chrysler 1929-30 series 66, you might like to measure the Chassis should be about 3 3/4" longer than your model 65 also if you check your rear panel that sits over the gas tank on your 65 it is different than the one that's on this chassis the 66 didn't have a cover that sits over the sending unit of the gas tank also the opening is more of a tear drop than an circle like the model 65 has and then you have the dumb irons and shackles holding the springs in place unlike the 65 with rubber blocks, so I'm sticking with a 66.

Bob Scafani Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) 1929 Chrysler photo has a tube axle and rubber spring perches such as a model 75. Ben's chassis has a forged axle and shackle bolts could be a model 65. Edited February 25, 2018 by Bob Scafani (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintageben Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 I’m guessing by the sounds of it we are on opposite sides of the world or close to it. If any consolation I often see parts or cars on this forum and wish they were much closer by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintageben Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Yeah it probably is little to far to freight, I thought these cars were halfways common in USA maybe I have been told a whole lot of lies or it the old grass is greener phenomenon at work, oh well best of luck in your search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narve N Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 For your info, the Series 65 did also have rubberized suspension and not shackle bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
