hi-i have an early 1935 Dodge pickup-it has the suicide doors, could any of you tell me what other Dodge pickup years interchange with the body panels and what not. Are any of the car pieces the same? thanks

i think 32-34 shared body panels and suicide doors---in 35 it got stretched out so only the 35-36 were the same with regular doors---bob

From what I've been told,32 thru mid/early 35 Dodge & Plymouth doors interchange,then late 35 thru 38 Dodge/Plymouth doors interchange.
I just got a 1937 Plymouth truck missing the doors,and have been keeping my eyes open/asking around,was informed by a guy I met that had a '37....please let me know if you know of any doors!

body lines are different---28-31 share the same lines with regular hinged doors----32-34 have the same body line with suicide doors---35-36 has its own body line with regular hinged doors----i have a 28 31 and 33 units at my house and a friend has 34 and 35 so i have some visual experience----if you have a 28,29,30,31,35,36 with suicide doors some one has customized it----bob

not to be picky, but 33,34, and EARLY 35 had suicide doors. i believe mopar ron can back me up on this statement. late 35 had regular doors, and the 36 was a diferent cab altogether. i have never seen a 32 with any resemblance to the cab of the 33-35, and this is also backed up with many factory brochures and copy adds i have seen through out the years. [ 1/4 thru 2 1/2 ton trucks,panel vans and sedan deliverys]. it is possible a VERY late [titled] 32 has the suicide doors you have seen, but i would almost bet it is a 33 model year. 28-32 and [late 35] 36-up have regular doors. this applies to the 1/4 thru 2 1/2 ton trucks i have been around for the last 35-40 years.

I agree 33 was the first year for suicide doors all 32 trucks had regular doors and the dodge book I have shows that in 1935 the smaller trucks 1/2 ton up to like 1 1/2 ton(maybe 2 ton) used regular doors but the larger trucks still has suicide doors.
I'm not sure on the early to late in the year thing
I am sure on the small truck to large truck.

you can mate the 33-34 small truck front end(and 33 car) on to a 36-38 cab and call it a 35.
36 cabs(and the 35 I believe) had a flatter top to the windshield and the 37-38 had a slighter ark to the top of the windshield. but other than the dash I believe the cab's are almost the same Ron...
