Re: Last years body on this years car
The overwhelming probability is that it is a 30 or 31 body put onto 32 rails by a previous owner or a shop employed by a previous owner. Whoever did it did a very tidy job and took care to make it look well finished. It is more street rod than hot rod or resto so it probably has a high percentage of non original parts. It might be a Brookville body. It's hard to tell from the photos.
Henry was not making cars in ones and twos but by the thousands. The car in question would not have left the Ford factory with that body/chassis combo.
My educated appraisal. (Ok, guess!)
Mart.
