For Sale from Sweden – 1934 Chevrolet Master Series DA Coach (2-Door Sedan)
A true pre-war classic with Swedish history
No U.S. import duty if re-imported to the United States
This 1934 Chevrolet Master Series DA Coach (2-Door Sedan) was sold new in Sweden and has undergone an extensive restoration, begun in 1978 and completed in 2019. The result is a car that retains its authentic pre-war character while benefiting from careful workmanship and documentation throughout.
Exterior
The car is finished in an elegant burgundy red body with black fiberglass fenders, combining period looks with durable restoration work. The all-steel body and frame are solid and rust-free, with good panel fit. The paintwork was professionally redone in 2017 and remains in very good condition with only minor imperfections. Chrome trim shows excellent shine, the glass is in good condition with only light wear, and the rubber seals are in good order.
Interior
The interior has been restored using the original seats and trim as a base, rebuilt with modern materials for longevity while keeping to the original appearance. Upholstery is finished in gray with no damage, and the carefully redone wood-grain dashboard finish adds to the period-correct presentation. Overall, the interior remains in excellent condition.
Electrical & Instrumentation
The electrical system has been rebuilt to original specification. All gauges and lights are operational, including the turn indicators, which may need some attention. The original analog instrumentation is intact and working.
Mechanics
Power comes from Chevrolet’s well-regarded inline six “Stovebolt” engine paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. The drivetrain runs smoothly without smoke, leaks, or unusual noises. The engine bay is clean, wiring correct, and the undercarriage has been refurbished. Brakes and suspension components are in good order, and while there is some play in the steering, the car drives straight on the road.
The car rides on original-style bias-ply tires, size 5.25/5.50-17, in good condition with more than 5 mm (0.2 in) tread depth.
