NO!......[ddd
Looks like you forgot the rest of your car.;)
Kind of reminds me of a Morris Minor though....[S
Torchie
At least you didn't compare it to a Gremlin. :D

So, how about, straighten up the back panel, stretch the roof to fit, and leave the long fenders. Then it would look right. Right? [S
 
Good to hear the opinions.
I kinda like small foots rendering too but I’m not sure I can like the “pt cruiser” look about the sedan, panel or original. All I see it PT cruiser.
Here’s a pic of a coupe, actually I’ll post a few I borrowed off the net.
These are the vision, I’m thinking I’m stuck on the coupe look. Especially the tail dragged.
I think it was Torchie who suggested using the front clip of the sedan on the coupe body but both coupe bodies are actually quite different. My thoughts were to cut the hips off the ‘34 and build a trunk lid. I’ll have to introduce the three cars to each other before I can take measurements and see what the possibilities are.

Just thinking out loud...

I have a '38 Chevy 2 door sedan project and my friend has a '37 Chevy coupe project. Our front ends and fenders will interchange... 2 door sedan, 4 door sedan or coupe, '37 or '38, they'll fit each other.

If Chrysler did anything like GM, you might find fenders and a front end from another Chrysler model.

What I'm trying to say is, you have excellent trading fodder. A guy looking for nice '35 parts will pay or trade for what you have...


P.S. Good luck in S'toon!

Gunz, I'd like to confuse the issue even more. I have most of the front half of a '33 Plymouth sedan that would go with that coupe back half that you have. Now, I have robbed the front doors and chopped them to fit into my '34 coupe. [pic1]. Here's some pics of the good side of the sedan and some photoshopping. It looks like you have a '56 Ford two door hardtop out in front of your '37 that I would be interested in.

No confusion here. That would make sense especially had I bought the two ‘34 doors I seen for sale last summer. I knew I should have scooped them up.
The ‘56 Ford is one of nine and amongst those are three two doors. Unfortunately they don’t belong to me, they belong to the fella I purchased the ‘37 from. I sent him a text inquiring if he wanted to sell any of the fords and at this time he is not sure he wants to. I told him to let me know if he’s willing to part with one of them and I can relay the message to you Mac.
As for now I have enough on my plate even though I am interested in that ‘34 sedan you have there. I’ll definitely keep it in mind.
 
My sedan is a '33, Gunz. I'm not being nitpicky just to be nitpicky, the '33 has a different slant to the 'A' pillar than the '34, and the sedans are an inch taller than the coupes. You will have to chop the sedan doors that you find and maybe move the 'A' pillar on the window if the years don't match up. You'll have to read my 34 Plymouth coupe thread.
