There must be people in your state that also have a 30/31 body on a 32 chassis. What did they do when registering?

Is the frame original? Does it have numbers? Do the numbers fit the 32 model year? Are they factory stamped numbers?

If repro you need to understand your state's rules or guidance for registering a vehicle. Other people in your state or country should be able to advise better than me on that one.

We will try and help you get your car through the registration process but you must work with us.

I was at a auction in Pennsylvania a few years back and the guy had a 29 roadster body on a 32 frame. Had a 59 AB engine. When they tried to sell it, they rattled off its a 1947 ford model 29 roadster 32 frame blah blah blah
...which confused a bunch of people. They clarified it was titled as a 1947 ford because the guy used the engine numbers and the title from the donor car to get an assembled title.

It gets mentioned a lot on here when talking titles, every state is different.
