Hello all, was wondering if anybody knew if a 35 Plymouth grille shell would fit on a 35 Dodge? I know where the headlights mount is different, but the overall shape of the grille shell looks to be the same. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

So it sounds like the 2 hood halves are the same, the question is what the "center" part is I guess. As I said every picture I look at they,(the 2 hoods) look exactly the same.I know there is alot of 42 only things on a 42, but I know there is some 46 thru 48 parts that interchange. Thanks for the info Shel bizzy. Anyone else care to chime in??

Anyone know if a 46,47,48, Dodge hood will fit, and is the same as a 42 Dodge hood? In all of the pics I have looked at, it looks like it is the same butterfly hood. Chrome trim may be different, but the hoods look the same. I know there's somebody on here that will know. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

Looks great to me!!! Well done fabrication and craftsmanship!!

Appreciate the information.Thanks. Anyone one have one of these sedans?

Anyone know how many of the 1942 Dodge 2 door sedans were produced?Also any information about hem would be appreciated.Thanks

would that windshield chrome be the same 42 through 48? also the back window chrome?

I hate to be the sour apple here, but greyhound has "lost" a set of rear fenders that I had shipped for my 41. Don't ask how or why but that is there story. How you lose a box that big is beyond me. So I guess it's 6's and 9's!

He was definitely and icon and a pioneer.R.I.P Norm.

Tim and Dan you got it. I knew it wouldn't be to hard for ya'll to figure out. Creativity at it's best!!!

Ok fellas, lets see who can figure out what we have going on here.

I just noticed on that 42 3 window pic, it has a thinner bottom front fender trim then mine does?Wasn't able to find the correct piece? Or were the a couple of different options?? That's the only one I've seen like that with such a thin piece of trim.

Thanks to all for the kind words, it's appreciated greatly. It was a pleasure to have a companion like I did.

Lost what has probably been my best friend for the last 11 yrs tonite. She lived a good life, and had lots of fun while she was on this earth. She will me missed dearly. I love you Josie,and thank you for all the memories.

I'm just going to chime in here on the projects being to much money and not worth it. Yeah there is usually alot more money spent on restoring a car back to it's original shape, specially with the bastard cars like most mopars fall into, not being the ever so popular ford and chevys, then the retail market says they are worth. But where do you think all of these nice cars people have start out as? I think it would be safe to say most people start out with a hull of a car and slowly and progressively build the car back to it's former glory.I know myself I don't have the funds to go out and buy a rust free complete car. No I start with whatever it is I can afford and whatever shape it may be in and work towards the ultimate goal of having a car put back the way either the factory intended or however it is I want to build it.My cars are **** piles I guess in the sense they need tons of work, but at least they are my shitpiles!!!! It may take more money to put them back to how i want them to be, then they may actually be worth, but that's why I am into this hobby because I love doin the work and seeing my progress. So here's to all the people with old rusty cars. Build em, drive em, and love every minute of it!!
