Joker Posted August 7, 2021 Report Posted August 7, 2021 Hello everyone, I posted a while back about my project 1940 dodge 2 door sedan. Just found out that it's actually a 1942 dodge deluxe 2 door sedan. I'm currently in the market for a full set of floor pans. And any books about the production of this vehicle. I know there was a hold on production Jan 1942 as we entered WW2. As always any and all information and comments are welcome.. I found the 2 plates on firewall one is stamped 4435TDS back can't find any record that has those numbers. Quote
Eneto-55 Posted August 7, 2021 Report Posted August 7, 2021 Not certain, as I have a Plymouth, but I would guess that the floor pans (and probably the entire body shell, just not the front clip & rear fenders) are the same as on the 46-48. EXCEPT that the post-war Dodges appear to have been a new design for 46, while the 46-48 Plymouth is obviously a 'freshened up' 42. (I'm glad, because I like the older design much better - personal opinion only.) Quote
Doug&Deb Posted August 7, 2021 Report Posted August 7, 2021 Check the Plymouth Doctor for floor pans. Quote
Ron42Dodge Posted January 22, 2022 Report Posted January 22, 2022 I posted a lot of info regarding the 1942 Dodge in the AACA forum under 1942 Dodge Factory Correct information. The fire wall tags don't tell you a whole lot. I believce the TDS might be Two Door Sedan and the number is the number in line of the 2 Door sedans when that one was built. The other tag probably say Dodge Brothers on it. I do have a spare parts manual for the 42 Dodge. Do you have a picture of yours to post? They made a 2 Deluxe door sedan and a Custom Brougham. I also started a Facebook Page for 1942 Dodge Owners. Quote
Bryan Posted January 22, 2022 Report Posted January 22, 2022 Don't know if the ones also fit 2 doors https://www.c2cfabrication.com/pages/search-results-page?q=1942+dodge+floor+pan Quote
