For Sale: 1937 Cord 812 in ASTORIA, New York

1937 Cord 812 Phaeton

This highly desirable and collectible 1937 Cord 812 Phaeton wears quality older restoration. Yellow with red interior. An extremely attractive example that still presents beautifully. 

Just out of long-term ownership and storage, the motor runs but the car is not roadworthy without mechanical commissioning. 289 CID L-Head V-8 engine with Stromberg downdraft carburetor and 4-speed Bendix electric vacuum servo preselector gearbox. This sought-after 812 Phaeton with its aerodynamic "coffin nose" louvered hood lacking a traditional radiator shell, "step-down" floor, hidden door hinges, and pop-up headlamps, is a lovely example of a truly iconic design. A wonderful presentation of one of the most innovative cars of the Classic Era.

• An Iconic Coffin-Nose Cord
• Quality Older Restoration 
• Among the Boldest and Most Famous Designs of the Classic Era
• One of America’s Most Innovative Automobiles of the 1930s
• A Styling and Mechanical Tour de Force
