What model/year car is this?
Hi, I am a new member and need help identifying a car in the attached photo. My dad said it had an olds engine and a caddy tranny.
Thanks,

Not sure, but judging by the spray-can lettering on the side of the car, perhaps one of the regular contributors can supply hints as to the make and model....PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.

Looks a lot like a channeled '32 Ford 5 window coupe that's been chopped roughly 3 inches. The engine isn't a Olds, it's a Flathead Ford, based on the water hoses a '37 to '48 vintage engine.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon

I'll agree it is a '32 ford, with Ford flathead V8.
It's blurry, and there was an Olds with 3 two barrels and similar exhaust, but the smaller size and radiator hoses coming out at the top of the heads identify the engine.
