With the way the front grill comes to a point in the middle, I'm going Chrsler all the way.

I cant get chrysler out of that. Grill is just all wrong. Grill resembles a chevy. It may be a packard but I havent seen anything to make me say so.

the answer is plymouth. Its either a 42 or a war time car like this one. 43-45 plymouth didnt produce cars for civilian distribution. Only for the war. After that they changed the grill design. So, if its a civilian car its a 42, if not its a 43-45. I am going to go down there in a few days and search for some markings.

Slap a 4x4 chassis underneath it and wheel it!! It'll be the most unique 4x4 around... :D
