Hi all, can a 30/31 Tudor sedan be turned into a delivery by adding a rear door and filling in the rear side windows? Thanks for any and all input.

Yes, but not like any original one. The Ford version was much longer and had a wood framed body. I'm thinking they were built by Murray but would need to look it up to be sure. They did use the same front doors and cowl.

Basically, you could do that but it would not be a Deluxe Delivery [ 130B] if that is what you seek.
The factory DD had longer side panels & roof than a Tudor.
In foreign markets & the US [at least in 1928], there were conversion kits done on Tudors to make a commercial type delivery vehicle. The rear side windows were sometimes not enclosed.
Briggs had a conversion kit for Tudors that was used up to 1936 .
Photos have appeared on FB of Model A Tudors converted when new in the US, Germany, Argentina & New Zealand. They are rare ; I only know of one on the road in NZ.
There are also a few Fordors converted with a back door in the US, known as ''Flower Cars''.

There is a really nice one For Sale on the Marc Web Site.The ad does not say how much. It would be a lot cheaper to buy one already done. Trust me I know first hand.
