Apparently the 37 is by itself.

 

However, Chevs of the '40's lists trunk floor panels for '37 - '39. All their floor panels are listed for '37 - '39.

Behind the rear wheels is where the previous place says they are different. I guess they can't be much different.

 

No differences between '37 coupe or sedan frames. Also, no differences between 37 and 38 Chevy frames that affect anything. 39 is a bit different in the rear, but could work with 37 body, I'm sure. I sold my '39 frame so i can't be specific about how 39 frames are different, but i had planned on putting a 37 body on it until i found a 37 frame.

 

For whatever reason, '37 frames run straight back from the top of the axle hump to the bumper attachment. '38 frames drop down directly after the axle hump, then parallel to the ground (more or less) to the bumper. All other differences that I can recall were very minor. My one reference states that '39 frames are the same as '37 - '38.
