The 1933 Internationals had a postal version with the humpback roofline, with standard opening doors like your pic.

The Dodges had suicide doors. You might have an IH in front of you.

I googled and I agree it does look like a 33 Dodge Humpback. RatRod? Maybe...
Thanks for your help...

Probably would be cheaper to have a completely custom frame replica built.

The amount of time and money it would take just to get this thing rolling makes me cringe. How would you even go about getting it out of the woods?

I almost have it cut out of the woods, no problem there but I am starting to think I should hand this one on... any bids?

Don't have any input, just wanted to say that's a really neat find! Was that the only vehicle you found? Back when I was a kid, we had a wooded area where people fourwheeled and played paint ball...and dumped old cars. Looking back, it was a gold mine.

Maybe you can get some friends together and put it up on some blocks and get a tarp so it doesn't get even more ruined, that way you can decide later if you wanna mess with it?

L Stick, I appologize for not reading correctly before, you mentioned it may be an International, I just googled that for pics but came up empty. Any references or pics to the international I could see?

It's almost spot on for a '37 Dodge Panel Truck.

I found a few more examples. The Orange is identified as a '36 Dodge, the Red is a '38
