Sactownog Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 What is the deal with Standard Opening Doors on a 1933 Dodge 2 Door coup? I have pictures of one and the car doors open NON SUICIDE. was this a special mod the owner made or did they make certain years with standard opening doors/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) The 1933 Dodge Brothers Model DO8 had standard door hinge points. There were 212 rumble seat coupes like that one built in 1933. Edited February 26, 2019 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylormade Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Were they using up surplus 32 bodies for this series. That sedan really looks like my DL, minus the different bumpers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Very possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) From the cowl forward will be longer though, with the 8 cylinder engine? The 1930 DC-8 had that front hinge door configuration too, as did the DD-6. I wonder why they reverted to rear hinged front doors?
