Vehicle Description
We offer this 1939 Chevrolet Deluxe Sedan. Well you can throw your
ideas of staying out of sight right out the window if you take this
1939 Chevrolet Master Deluxe 2-door sedan home with you. Bright
orange paint, flames, a rumbling stroker motor, and all the other
stuff that makes hot rods awesome is standard equipment. If you
like the look, you're going to love the ride. Over $25,000 was
spent on the paint and interior on this car and it shows. The '39
Chevys were always attractive cars, and with a few minor tweaks,
this one takes on a slick hot-rod look that's impeccably smooth.
The all-steel body did not require major surgery to get to its
current astounding condition, just a lot of time invested in the
details. Plus block sanding... lots and lots of block sanding. The
bright orange paint has a bunch of pearl in it, so there's a glow
to it when the light hits it just right, and the incredible flames
are so intricate and detailed that they probably took two weeks to
paint all by themselves. You'll note that much of the trim was
shaved, and the flames lick around the side trim which is still in
place, just painted to match the body. The grille appears stock but
is actually a fabricated piece that simulates the classic 1939
Chevy V-shaped grille, giving it an updated, smooth look. The
windshield was Vee'd, the running boards painted body color and
treated to their own flame job, and discreet side mirrors were
fitted to the doors. Other smooth tricks include a flush-mounted
fuel-filler door and the low-mounted taillights where the bumper
used to life. The stunning interior is well beyond your usual hot
rod fare, incorporating low-back buckets and more flames to great
effect. The tan leatherette upholstery feels upscale and supple,
and the modern buckets are all-day comfortable. They brought the
orange paint inside, but in small doses so it feels cohesive
without being overwhelming, and the custom-made dashboard is
absolutely beautiful with its cream-colored gauges. A/C was
artfully incorporated into the dash and a powerful AM/FM/CD stereo
uses speakers in the custom center console and rear deck to deliver
sound. A full-width back seat means this is a family-friendly rod
and with a sizeable trunk in back, feel free to hit the road in
style. Cruising is effortless, but this Chevy is also downright
fast thanks to a 383 cubic inch small block which has been dressed
in lots of chrome. The coordination with the bodywork is evident
and they really went the extra mile to make it look right, hood up
or hood down. Equipment like a 4-barrel carburetor and block-hugger
headers help the fast-revving stroker motor build horsepower and
with a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission, it's plenty punchy
around town. The chassis was reinforced and upgraded with a Mustang
II front suspension with rack-and-pinion steering, while out back
there's a Ford 9-inch on leaf springs with a beefy sway bar. Disc
brakes at all four corners are a sensible upgrade and with new ball
joints and shocks in 2011, it rides and drives superbly. 15-inch
American Racing wheels polished up nicely and wear 195/60/15 front
and fat 225/70/15 rear performance radials. Well-built and not too
radical to drive across the country, this very cool '39 Chevy makes
a compelling argument for full-sized rods. Options include: Radial
tires, tilt wheel, seat belts, alarm system, Aluminum wheels, vinyl
interior.To view the car in greater detail, including 100+ HD
