VERY RARE! ONLY 419 MADE! CHECK OUT THIS 1932 SERIES BA CONFEDERATE PHAETON!
America’s Great Depression was at its height when Chevrolet introduced the Series BA Confederate for the 1932 model year. The Confederate replaced the Series AE Independence and drew a great deal from the previous model both mechanically and cosmetically. While suffering a huge sales decline of almost fifty percent from 1931, the slightly over 300,000 units sold kept Chevrolet in the number one position in American car sales.
Changes to the 1932 body included a sloped windshield that allowed for the elimination of the external visor utilized on previous models. Vents that could be opened and closed on the hood replaced the louvers found on previous model years. On Deluxe models those vents were finished in chrome. Mechanically, the Confederate continued to use the company’s venerable “Stovebolt Six” engine which was fitted with a new downdraft carburetor and an increased compression ratio to improve performance. The transmission was a three speed synchronized manual with a free-wheeling provision that allowed the vehicle to “coast” when the driver took their foot off the accelerator. The electrical system was a six-volt negative ground and numerous lighting and accessory options were available through both the factory and the selling dealership.
Evergreen Digital Showroom offers this 1932 Chevrolet Series BA Confederate Deluxe Phaeton model for sale. Appointed in a two-tone tan and black livery with red wheels wrapped with whitewall tires, the car bears evidence of an older restoration that has aged well. The interior is finished in tan leather and is in very good condition. There are some minor flaws that one would expect from an older restoration but overall the vehicle presents very well. The car has been in the portfolio of a prominent investor/collector for over 15 years and has been kept in a humidity-controlled environment. Production records found in the Encyclopedia of American Cars indicate only 419 Deluxe Phaetons were manufactured in the 1932 model year!

NOTICE
Because of the number of vehicles we represent we cannot drive every vehicle for long distances. These vehicles have been part of static displays for long periods of time, in some cases for decades, and are subject to the flaws and imperfections consistent with that. While we do our best to disclose all issues we known about a vehicle in our advertising, these are old cars and something that has always worked in the past might not function properly today. Please check the requirements of your state regarding the licensing and registration of classic vehicles and make sure the vehicle you are looking at meets those if applicable. Unless otherwise noted, all vehicles represented by Evergreen Digital Showroom possess a clean (non-branded) title which will be provided the new buyer when purchase funds clear our financial institution. Virtually all of our vehicles are sold as mileage exempt due to their age. We do not warranty any vehicle, nor any part of the vehicle including air conditioning systems, brake systems, electrical systems and gauges, fuel systems, accessories or powertrain components.
These are old vehicles and it is very common for them to require certain maintenance and upkeep for them to be operational. In many cases issues with leaks may develop when being driven after a long period of not being used. This is common, as classic cars at some point will leak fluids. For this reason, we do not encourage buyers to attempt driving their purchase home as we cannot guarantee functional reliability of these vehicles. We strongly encourage prospective buyers to be sure they are comfortable with these issues before purchasing a classic car.
Descriptions of vehicles represented by Evergreen Digital Showroom are intended to be informational in nature and do not in any way constitute any sort of warranty, expressed or implied. Again, these vehicles are presented “as-is, where-is” without guarantee or warranty. Vehicles manufactured prior to 1981 will likely not be included in the databases of companies such as CarFax and AutoCheck that provide vehicle history information to consumers. If you have specific questions regarding a vehicle we urge you to contact us at 417-532-8000.
