General Motors' Chevrolet Division competed neck-and-neck with Ford
during the 1920s and by 1929, a new inline 6-cylinder powerplant
with modern overhead-valve architecture trumped Ford and its
4-cylinder Model A. The Chevrolet mill would remain in production
for many years to come, delivering abundant power, torque, and
legendary reliability. Mechanical and styling advancements further
defined Chevrolets of the era. By the mid-1930s, sleek, streamlined
body designs enhanced the many Chevrolet attributes. Catering to
commercial buyers, Chevrolet passenger cars were also available in
Sedan Delivery and by 1936, Chevrolet offered a Coupe-Delivery
model, based on the Model FC 2-door Coupe. Known as the
Coupe-Delivery, these stylish small haulers featured a useful
side-mounted spare wheel/tire combination and twin rear-bumper step
plates to ease loading and unloading of cargo. While rare today,
these versatile Chevrolet sold well, with 3,183 built for the
inaugural 1936 model year. They would continue through 1941/42,
with an added trunk lid.This interesting and highly attractive 1936
Chevrolet Model FC Coupe-Delivery benefits from restoration and
collector ownership and care. Handsome Willow Green paint is
complemented by correct mohair upholstery, gleaming chrome accents,
wide Whitewall tires mounting artillery-style steel wheels, and
solid Oak bed flooring. Ample power is delivered by Chevrolet's
renowned 216 CI "Stovebolt" inline 6-cylinder engine, paired with a
3-speed floor-shifted manual transmission. Contact us today for
