1933 vs 34 Victoria
 

Apart from hood and grille are there differences in the 33vs34 Victoria bodies? I thought is was something in the back??? Pics would be great if they are different.

33 has a bustle like a 32, 34 has an opening trunk.

1934 Vicky, kind of a flatback with opening trunk.

1933 Vic, with prominent "bustle" below the belt line.......my favorite! Note how short the rear seat side window is on the Vickys. DD

Here are some more pictures of the 1934 Ford Victoria. The last one showing the trunk open. As V8 COOPERMAN said, 1934 is the only model with the opening trunk.

For comparison, here are pictures of a 1933 Ford Victoria. This particular car is a very early production model with the "skirtless" fenders. There are also other differences that were only on the first of the 1933 models, such as the way the Spare Wheel is attached etc. This is a very car.

The Inner structure for the 34 has more steel replacing the 33's wood .

While on the subject of Ford Victorias, I thought I would add a photo of the first model Ford Victoria that was available with a V8 engine. This body style was first offered in 1930 for the Model A. This fine example pictured above is a 1932 Ford V8 Victoria.
