1931Chrysler


Recommended Posts

A "Johnnie Cash" car (check out his song about making a car out of many makes) as near as I can tell, although mostly MOPAR circa 1930/31. Radiator shell appears to be 1931 Chrysler CM6, front fenders likely Dodge and coupe body has Chrysler and other Mopar appearance. Split windshield began in 1932 for Chryslers. Dash I don't recognize but appears correct for body. I'm sure K31 will tell you what every part came off!!

Looks to be a 1932 Chrysler CI6 (one of 2,913 built) with 1955/56 Dodge instruments and a 1958 Ford steering wheel. Possibly 1968 MoPar magnum wheels. Maybe 1940 Willys taillights. Yes, the op says it does not have the original engine in it.

Look like 1932 Chrysler CI6 front fenders to me.

Headlamps are incorrect for the car in question. A serial number on the passenger side door jamb will narrow the year of production down.

I think K31 has it pretty much pinned down. fairly rare and desirable car, and should be a good candidate for a return to original factory specs, be a shame to see it hot-rodded, especially to the folks here on AACA..
