The black one is a 1929 Town Sedan. Be very careful with the cowl
band they are very fragile and hard to find.

Thank you all for the replies, especially the pointing out of years. If there are places I can take pictures of for you guys to confirm years further please let me know.

My objective is pretty clear in my mind, a maintainable daily driver for the black 29' Sheet metal floor and roof, more modern drivetrain as I only have the one A block and I have multiple 2.3l Inline 4s sitting in a shed.

The blue one identified as a 28' will have a full actual restoration.

The black one will be the first one started as it'll never be a points car, just a daily driver.

I think I have come as close as I will get for the dimensions I have been looking for by finding this https://www.mafca.com/images/measure...rdor-sedan.jpg

Through some maths I may be able to make this work until such a time as a person with a fordor sedan can give me the exact b pillar width dimensions.
