History Vintage Tin Found In The Desert-'33 Chevy?

It's worth digging out, it's worth a few bucks. My friend here had just the shell from one off an old race car. No deck lid, doors welded shut, a lot of it trimmed away. If I remember right he sold it for around a grand. Before that I was toying with what it would look like as a hot rod. The body profile on those is pretty sharp.

Around here when I want to know who owns land I go to the town or county offices and ask them, usually that's public record. If it's state or county land, then you probably want to volunteer to do a litter cleanup and not mention you intend to clean up the cars too.

I'd guess it was buried by water, a flash flood perhaps, carrying sand and so on that settled around the body.

 

You're right it is worth digging up. I've seen a lot worse brought back to life.

 

Did man Dig!

 

Watch for scorpion nests.

 

Coupe is a '34 Std and the sedan is a '35 Std. Great finds! Keep us posted on the excavation.

 

i know its not a 34 chevy becuse the front winsheild body sinks in and not out like a 34 chevy

 

34s were rectangular opened towards the windshield, 35s were peaked and opened to the front. Yep a Standard, single centre mounted instruments, Master instruments were in front of driver with a glove compartment on passenger side.

 

Very nice, Bet a few excited gearheads could dig that out within an hour !!

 

/\ /\ /\ I agree, they are both 34 Chevrolet Standards, 34's had a rectangular shape cowl vent that opened towards windscreen and 35's had a boomerang shape cowl vent that opened towards the hood.

 

...maybe it's on a trailer if you dig deep enuf! LOL!
..sure hope you can get it, it deserves better, get all of em. We want pics of the dig.

 

We're goona try to get it tommorrow. We dug it out today.

 

Snakes

 

Wow that's a great find. I believe both are 34 standards the 35 4 doors I believe all 4 doors were suicide style. I would love to have both.

 

We need pictures of the excavation !

 

documentation please!

 

I have never stolen a car in my life. But this one would try my discipline.

 

looks like the shooter ran out of ammo before he got to the sedan...

 

Either 1 of those cars is better than the 37 chevy I found, that I'm considering buying.

 

Sweet!!!

 

Damn that's gonna be a big hole when the car is gone. How come I never stumble across things like this....

 

That's awesome that your digging it out!!! Are you getting both cars? I can't wait to see pictures of the unearthing of this future bad ass hotrod!!!

 

Pics of the rescue......please!

 

Great pic's and find. !!!! Keep us posted.

 

Carcheology at its finest hour. The 40 Ford woody in my avatar was buried way worse.

 

Pics of the big digout required. I agree that being in the desert, the body may be quite good condition underneath the soil level. If not, there is enough there for some pieces to help a guy out with rebuilding one. Nice find there, both are decent shape to start with, many have done with less.

 

suscribed this is gonna be good!

 

What kind of shape is it in?Pics please.

 

Remember, they are NOT stealing cars. They are cleaning up the land!

 

Whats the hold up with the pics,inquiring minds need to know.

 

yeah and anyone who treats a car like this on purpose doesent deserve to keep calling it his anyway get it outa there soon!
