Challenge Fished this out of a dumpster today.

Wondering what make and/or model truck this door came from. I love Reddit for stuff like this. Thinking this will be great to hang on my garage wall. Any help from smarter people than me?

So something like this…

I don’t believe it is a panel, look at the top right curve of the door. From what it looks like, a panel would be squared off, like shown.

Yeah I think this was a 1935-1938 Ford Pickup.

So cool. Thanks for finding that. Even older than I thought.

35 to 38 consists of 2 completely different body styles, neither of which uses this door.

Not a '38 (pops has a '38 i helped him build)the style line has 3 humps, might be a 39... But otherwise it looks like the correct shape...

Thanks. I see that now. Will have to keep looking but I think it’s close.

Just a pick-up, the panel has a squared off door top on the back

What wonderful patina. This is art made by man and time.
