Not that one.

I need to tighten up the geography, as there are too many coachbuilders that made aftermarket bodies for Ford. Is the coachbuilder that I am searching for from the Northeast Central United States (West of the Allegheny Mountains, North of the Ohio River and East of the Mississippi River)?

I'm sorry, but I know very little about this coachbuilder; on the side of this car (on the White paper) you can read the name of this body, and the name of the firm: --------- body, by -------- & Son. Than you have an address but not the city...and I haven't found other news about them.

One last try. They are probably too well known, but otherwise are the only name I can think of that fits your criteria. Is the coachbuilder: F. B. Wood & Son?

targhediferro · « **Reply #34 on:** May 22, 2014, 01:50:09 AM »

No, the name of the body is 9 letters long, the coachbuilder's one is 8.

cabriolet body?

targhediferro · « **Reply #36 on:** June 19, 2014, 06:35:21 AM »

Not "Cabriolet".

Landaulet?

targhediferro · « **Reply #38 on:** June 19, 2014, 10:44:21 AM »

Not Landaulet. I want to give you a clue: The Body name isn't a proper body definition, but some Makers of a European State, used it to describe a kind of vehicle during late '50 and '60 (and perhaps later on, but I don't know)...a kind of vehicle different from quiz car.

Limousine ?

targhediferro · « **Reply #45 on:** June 21, 2014, 05:48:45 PM »

Not an Italian word, and not limousine.

An English word?

pnegyesi · « **Reply #47 on:** June 22, 2014, 06:33:44 AM »

Familiale?

targhediferro · « **Reply #48 on:** June 22, 2014, 03:52:26 PM »

The makers I was thinking about are not English, but the world that describes the body of quiz car has the same meaning also in English. Familiale is wrong but is a good idea...but the name is not French.

Is it "Universal"?

DKW called the estate car/wagon body of the F89 "Universal" in the 1950s, and Volga used the same name a bit later in the early 1960s.
