Pontiac59 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Wood framed, about 21" long on top and about 21" tall also, no outside handle, inside bar handle. Hidden hinges, suicide style with latch at front. Not quite square, belt line angles up a bit at the rear. Similar to mid-teens Dodge but shape is wrong, those have a different lower rear corner radius. I could peel up the door panels a little if an inside view helps. I looked at a lot of pictures, but it's tough to determine details because so many of these cars are painted black or dark colors. These aren't really in bad shape, just minor rust and no holes, and small enough I could actually ship them. Be nice to find someone who can use them. Latch even works on this one.

Stude17 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 The door capping and edge moulding remind me of Studebaker. Might be 1918/1919 but I could not say for certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pontiac59 Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 Looked for that forum, didn't see it, saw ID posts in this one so I went with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontiac59 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Maybe some brighter photos would help. This is the other door. 1916-1919 Cadillac 7-passenger is close, handle placement, hinges look right, rear doors have no cutout for wheel arch, but they don't look to have the angled belt line. The ones I've found photos of have different door panels, too, although the pocket is similar.

Dave Mellor NJ Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 To get to the What's it? forum you have to go inside the "Photo and Video" forum although I doubt anybody there would know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1912Staver Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 There were many makes, models, body styles in this time frame and in general terms they are frequently very similar. Positive I.D. can be quite difficult. A number of these cars or specific body styles are 100% extinct these days so odd leftover parts can pose a almost impossible challenge. The hinges definitely have a teens GM look to them however this may be a coincidence. Cadillac as suggested is certainly a place to start.

lump Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Sherlock Holmes said that "Deduction," was one of his tools for finding the answer to a mystery. He figured out what the mystery clue WASN'T, eventually leaving only the correct answer in his mind. To that end, I can tell you that it definitely is different than my '23 Hupp touring. Top edges of my doors are smooth and radiused. No raised edges on the surface either. You probably already knew that, but I offer this on the small chance that it may help.

nsbrassnut Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 They are 1915 Hudson 6-40 roadster or touring doors. 1914 Hudson 6-40 has the same interior pattern, but different hinges. I have a '14 and a pair of '15 rear doors that are identical. I would have to check the door dimensions to confirm if they are front or rear doors. The rears are slightly longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
