    Looking for some assistance in "correctly" identifying this car (body/chassis)I have...



    I was told...that it is a 33 Dodge....but some tell me 34 Dodge(because of the dash)...others Plymouth 5 window coupe.

    The current title(33 Dodge) shows a fairly long VIN....but cannot find it anywhere on the body/chassis...



    There is a plate w/ stamped #s on the firewall....and a serial # on the B pillar (9326166)



    The body/frame + parts are currently for sale....



    Any information would be greatly appreciated.



    Cheers,

    Ash...

    the firewall number is the body number----the vin number is either on the passenger A pillar or the B pillar
    my 31 plymouth is on the A pillar and runs 9306XXX
    and most car guys dont give out their whole vin numbers----one of my friends had the state patrol auto theft unit seize his 57 chev convt because another similar car was registered 30 miles from his house----they kept his car one year until they determined the other 57 was stolen and had a fake vin plate on it---huffs car had been wrecked really bad and he bought it with a title and stored it in a machine shed for 20 years ---he had just put about$35,000 into the restoration and registered it
    he is lucky the guys that noted his vin number hadnt pried it out of the car in those intervening years---bob

    correct me if i am wrong but i think dodges ran leaf springs and straight axle those years and plymouth had coil springs IFS at that time---bob
