Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this near museum quality and
strong running 1928 Chevrolet National. 1928 National displayed a
longer and straighter hood, flowing fender lines, lower profile,
and smoothly integrated body panels. That longer hood was no
styling frivolity; it was necessary to accommodate the six-cylinder
engine that was soon to come. Meanwhile, the old reliable
171-cubic-inch four-cylinder engine gained higher compression,
larger valves, aluminum pistons, and a revised carburetor for a
final breath of life and a rating of 35 horsepower at 2,200 rpm.
The original engine was rebuilt with new rings and valves and the
transmission was rebuilt as well. The engine fires up with ease and
runs very well. It is mated to a 3 speed manual transmission. This
car does down the road like a dream. The brakes were also relined.
The car was given an electric fuel pump.
This beautiful car was restored very meticulously and is one of
nicest early Chevrolet's we have seen on our floor. The car has
been in Michigan for most, if not all of its life. The Blue paint
on the body and black fenders complement each other well. The '28
National rides on whitewall tires. It still retains its original
tool kit including the grease gun for the fittings, and the tire
remover crank. The tan leather interior is in immaculate shape as
well. The speedometer even works. It has as rear mounted spare tire
as well. The windshield can go up or down with the turn of a crank
allowing airflow into the cabin. The gas tanks on the Chevrolet's
are mounted on the rear which make it easier to fill up than Ford's
Model A. This is an excellent vehicle for any collection and a
must-see within our gallery, call or email us today for a closer
look at automotive history at its best!
