It's too long, especially rear door :D
Original Cord dosen't have window on C-pillar, inside mirror is wrong side, and front window is one piece (original was split).
I agree with Made For Movie.

This one is at the best a Replica or a Joke -aren't we the first of april Ben Hur's racing day at Monza-or at the worst a made for movie special.Wheelbase is too long , rear quarter window too high,the cowl curves upwards to the windshield whereas on original Cords it was straight and parallel with the hood , Exhausts are small tiny fake tubes just sprouting out of the sides of the car,windshield is one piece , on originals split .On original Cords the rearview mirror was mounted on the windshield divider just above the dashboard in the middle and the dashboard switch panel was painted black.The probability of seeing Cord sedans of the 810/812 series operated as taxicabs is almost nil,though at least some were used by Police forces.

Well, in such car we usually label it under the "supposed to be"-make, with "Replica" added ;)

I see :)
Even if it is a replica or a real one, it's pleasure to see the Cord in the movie.

word from Cord specialist:

"The Cord in "The Shadow" is not a replica. It is an original car modified by cutting out the center and adding a section. It might best be called a "stretched" Cord Westchester sedan. (Taxi gear added too.)"

You can see a Cord 810 in Topper with Cary Grant and Constance Bennett
