The V-8 Album put out by the Early Ford V-8 Club has those dimensions. Call the Early Ford V-8 Foundation and you can buy the book. Not sure on price( I think about $30), but it is on their website. Well worth the price www.fordv8foundation.org.

Thanks Charlie for your helpful information. I have had a problem accessing the site but with a bit of perseverance from Bruce Nelson the Web Administrator I have manager to connect. Thanks to you I now have the chassis dimensions for both cars. However the bodies, in particular the cab dimensions are still proving a little elusive. Do you know if it's possible to view "The 1932 Ford Book" electronically? Also can it be purchased in the digital format? As the postage to Australia is more than the books. Disc would be a more reasonable purchase once I know which vehicle I'm going with for the project. Thanks Again. Regards Brian Lewis

"The 1932 Ford Book" put out by the Early Ford V8 Club has dimensions for the '32 4 door on page A-5-7. I assume the '33-'34 book put out by the club would have the dimensions for the '34. I know I have seen those dimensions somewhere else, I will sleep on it and post again if I remember anything. UPDATE: I think trjford8 posted where I remember seeing this information in his 6/28 post. Charlie Stephens

Start with the frame details here: http://wescottsauto.com/WebCatalog/Tech/FrameDiagram1932.pdf http://wescottsauto.com/WebCatalog/Tech/FrameDiagram1933-34.pdf Be sure to note the '33-'34 has a longer wheelbase. Charlie Stephens

I would appreciate assistance! I am trying to source where to locate the cab/body and chassis measurements for a 1932 Fordor sedan so I can compare with a 1934 Fordor cab/body. This will assist me in choosing which vehicle I will use for my Hot Rod project. I need the same details for the 1934 Fordor as well. Regards Brian Lewis (Australia)
