passenger-car lines stand tall today as a masterpiece of
streamlined automobile design from the famed Harley Earl GM styling
studios. Restorers, drag racers, hot rodders and customizers have
chosen the 1938 Chevrolet from new as the ideal canvas for their
art forms and this 1938 Chevrolet Master Town Sedan is an
outstanding case in point that maintains its original styling with
a high-quality, award-winning build and known history from
new.Beginning as a one-owner vehicle from 1938 through 1983,
confirmed by the original 1939-83 stamped Ohio title document, this
1938 Chevrolet Master Deluxe town Sedan was acquired by the second
owner during the late 1980s. Subsequently, they had fiberglass
running boards installed and the body professionally refinished in
visually striking Metallic Green paint. Other exterior highlights
include a Speedline Bird hood ornament, Body by fisher badges, and
hand-laid pin stripes. Powertrain upgrades included a 345 HP 350 CI
ZZ3 GM V-8 crate engine and Hurst-shifted M20 four-speed manual
transmission.The second owner's son acquired the car in 2015 and
added the attractive, staggered-diameter 18- and 20-inch) Rushforth
alloy wheels, mounting Nitto NT555 Extreme ZR tires showing 2014
date codes. The interior was handsomely retrimmed in Brown leather
and Tan suede upholstery. Other updates include a Holley
double-pumper carburetor, Delco ignition system, ceramic-coated
exhaust headers, and a dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers
and manual cut-outs, plus a Ford 9-inch rear end, front disc
brakes, gas shocks, and VDO gauges. Passenger amenities include
front lap belts, a glovebox with an inset clock, and a burled wood
steering wheel.While built to enjoy, the Chevrolet is a high-level
show winner, having placed first in the 1935-1948 Custom Rod class
at the 2022 Detroit Autorama. Extensive mechanical service and
maintenance work was completed during 2020-23, confirmed by recodes
