Hot Rods Need pics of 37 38 Chevy coupes

I found a decent 38 chevy coupe here locally, missing frame and a few other parts but good body, fenders etc. All interior mouldings etc are there . Price $650. Well I'm a Ford guy, but the 37-38 chevs are pretty cool, but I don't see many. I'm haveing a hard time deciding weather to buy this car or not? So could you guys post some inspiration pics, to help me decide wether to buy or not? Thanks, Rusty.

 

The deck lid is worth more than that, and you're still wondering?

 

I know it's probably a good deal, but with no frame it's going to be a buger to move, and I'm shoert on space, also I'm really not up on chevy prices.

 

For that money it would be in the shop already

 

I sold my rear fenders and running boards for more than that.
Sounds like a good deal just for the parts...

 

That a good price...I'd jump on it. Here's a couple pics of my '38.

 

BTTT, iam in the middle of a 38 coupe project right now i would like to see whats out there..... come on guys lets see some pics....

 

My 38

 

Here is a 38 from a few years back.
I would like to have another one.
And that's a real good deal.

X--GASSER (Reed) has one of THE nicest '37 Chevy coupes I've ever seen.

I can't find any pictures of it right off hand though.

groucho, dan love your cars thanks.... ne more pics guys??

 

Man, this reminds me of a 37 coupe I used to own. I Went to an old guys house who I knew had some stuff and he told me all he wanted was a little more than scrap price for everything. He had a really nice 37 chevy coupe sitting there with miniml rust and all the glass still in it. I bought it from him for $20
I ended up trading it for a complete model A running chassis.
This was about 3-4 years ago

 

You NEED to jump on that, especially at a price like that!

Here's a couple of my '37...

 

...my 37, ...the building behind it was built in 1937 also...

 

Built this last year

 

I'm building a '38 coupe, and if you don't want it, I could use it for parts!

 

Groucho.......I love the 37,38 and 39 in the gasser style. Great ride.

 

This '38 belongs to a friend of mine, I've tried to get him to change the wheels...

 

I looked at buying a '38 this past summer but decided to pass, it even had a 392 Hemi in it! I'll dig up the pics I took.

 

everyone knows that a 37/38 chevrolet coupe is the most beautiful car ever built. yeah, i have one but that didnt influence my statement.

 

This one was burnt and hopeless. Nobody wanted it........but me! I had a vision. Best damn hot rod i ever built!

 

i've seen worse!

 

Here's my dads in order of date's. 1st one back in the 60's before and after i was born. then he sold it to raise a family.then mom ,I , and my brother found it and bought it back.Through 5 owners and was just like he left it. In the 80's during restoration. then finally done. Pretty cool car Stock straight axle and drum brakes.Always had a 6 cyl. currently a GMC 302 6 bored to 321, with multiple carbs and a 5spd.

This coupe makes a snowy day look good! I too think the 37-38 Chevy coupes were some of the best designed cars of the pre-war period.

Cool story, Smitty's...that's awesoem you got it back for him!!

 

Shhh... it's a secret but I've got those same wheels lurking under my hubcaps..

 

My old, now son's 37 + my gas station.
