For Sale: 1932 Chevrolet Confederate in Kentwood, Michigan

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1932 Chevrolet Confederate for purchase. While Ford held steadfast to the efficient Model A for too long, Chevy was giving buyers different body styles and choices gaining popularity. The big surprise did happen in 1931 when for the first time Chevrolet had outsold Ford in a model year. They heard rumors of Ford offering a V-8 engine next year, so Chevrolet dressed up all of the model styles with smoother lines and the addition of some cool hood doors on all 1932 models." Replacing the 22 vertical louvers per hood side were those aforementioned four "ports," as Chevrolet called them, and they, like the rest of the car's updated styling, were directly influenced by Oldsmobile and Cadillac; indeed, the 1932 Confederate BA Series cars quickly earned the nickname "Baby Cadillacs." The new Carter downdraft carburetor, Chevrolet's first, was mounted above the intake manifold to support easier starting, smoother idling, greater gas mileage and overall better performance. With the horsepower now at 60, the value-priced Chevrolet not only looked like a 'baby Cadillac,' but it performed significantly better now, too." Other mechanical advances debuting this year were "Silent Syncro-Mesh" on second and third gears, and standard selective freewheeling, which improved highway economy.

This '32 Chevy Confederate offered here is part of an estate and was loved by the owner for many years. It rides on 18 inch wire wheels with white wall tires. The body is straight and solid. The black paint is starting to reveal its age but is still very presentable. The chrome is in good condition and accents the body well. The 6 cylinder runs well and the manual transmission functions as it should. It has an aftermarket horn and a rear mounted spare tire.
