I'm not at home so don't have my files with me, but I don't think so.
Back home late tomorrow afternoon so I'll be able to check then.

Was this car built using parts from several car brands?

I only know what brand of chassis was used; I believe the rest of it is all hand-built though no doubt the drivetrain is probably from the same brand as the chassis.

I don't know what this car is, but, it appears to be parked next to a 1950 Plymouth or Dodge (at least from what I can see) might be a junior Chrysler but I'd need to see the rear fender splash guards to more certain.
