Guys,
I'm wondering if anyone has ever attempted to install a 1937 (or other year) trunk on a 36 slantback? I am not too kewl with no trunk access, and I can probably do it fine, just curious if anyone has done it, and if so, how did you do it and what would you do different?:confused:
 
Hey Alan,
Nah...no dice...I would just like to have a little bit of trunk room that you don't have to climb in the back to access. Maybe even a coupe trunk?
 
I know I would never do that to one of my '35 slantbacks. I do have an accessory luggage rack and I can put a trunk on that for carrying extra things. I have seen what's known as a boulevard sedan that was made from a tudor slantback sedan. A rear door was added that made it look like a sedan delivery with rear side windows. There was one for sale here and on epay. Another possibility is to trade your '36 for a '37 slantback that already has a trunk lid. I know what you are probably thinking......a lot of help these guys are......right? :D

I suppose the best solution would be to find a trunk assembly from a '36 phaeton, but good luck with that!
