Help ID this roadster + My dads hot rod pics from '66

My dad has had this in my Grandpas barn since he was sixteen years old. He picked it up from a junkyard in Biloxi, MS off of Pops Ferry Road. He never knew what it was and tried to mate it to a Model A cowl he had. Here are some pictures of him and the hot rod in 1966. He ended up putting the roadster back half into the barn where it sat until my Grandma passed away right after hurricane Katrina. What is it??? That hole in the side is factory, we believe it is some sort of luggage door or for golf clubs. Thanks for any help

Here it is with the wooden channel and the 1957 Pontiac 347 Police Inturceptor w/ 3x2 off of a 1964 GTO model A cowl and frame with a Dodge truck front axle.

This the old fiberglass and wood "C" cab burning after buying his Model A coupe body

This is the car finished after he found a Model A coupe body.

That body looks buick or caddy.Those are the only ones that come to mind that had the "Golf Club Door"opening.Thats what that square hole is.It also could of been Olds.This is a 32 olds roadster with the door.That was a higher end car in its day.

I think Caddy too but Packard and, Auburn, Cord, Stutz, many upscale cars might have had a golf door.
So what happened to the car in it's A coupe form?

 

[chefro]

No its not for sale.

He sold it to a guy in New Orleans for $400.
