Chevrolet Project Car 1938 This is a project car, can not be driven and it is a great body, parts and pieces but it will take an experienced builder to make it into a complete car. As such of course there are no warrantees written or implied. Before delivery the car and delivery cost must be paid, by bank transfer, PAyPal,,,,or the delivery will be delayed until the form of payment has made a full bank cycle up to 14 days. The deal will go through eBay and PayPal. This is a fantastic 1938 Chevrolet Master body to build into a street rod. I found this car in South Dakota and it spent its whole life prior to the owner moving from ND to SD in North Dakota. It has been in dry storage (not a barn) since 1955. The body for its age is virtually rust free and is just super solid thru out. This car has never been repainted and only has the primer and original brown top coat. I took a DA and sanded the trunk because they are normally rusty, all way down to bottom of quarter panel and the paint is so old and hard it comes off like butter. Found no rust with the DA. The normal rust areas are perfect, bottom edge of trunk, the front lower cowl area, rocker panels, bottom of doors, rear quarter area behind door, all great shape. There are two rusty areas that are easily fixed, there is an eight in square in the drivers floor area (leaky vent glass), (flat repair area) and in what I call the tool tray, the very back of the trunk area and is about 14 inches long and 3 inches wide, ( flat repair area). They sell the whole tail pan with this area included but the tail pan is pretty solid with the two holes for the bumper brackets needing just a touchup weld. There is a small collision area in the tail pan also, easily pulled out but if you replace the tail pan the dent will be gone. The fenders have never been repainted either and have no rot and only have a little surface rust underneath. I have built 4, 1938s and never seen fenders like this before, really really nice. A few of the really nice things about this body.. Head light buckets in perfect shape, with head light adjusters still in great condition Bottom of trunk lid that normally rust out is in perfect condition Rocker panels perfect Bottom doors great Front cowl not rusted Quarter panel not rusted Hood in great shape Grill pretty nice, still shiny Inner fender panels Chin in great shape Has grill baffle Grill top perfect Floor strong (1 small spot is bad) No rust on leading edge of rear fender (normally rusted) Front fender where attaches to running board not rusted Running boards that normally rust under mat are perfect, no rust Frame blasted Glass is there for patterns Have stock gas tank and straps Vent glass chrome is nice Nova rear end Both bumpers fair condition need rechrome for show Bumper brackets in good condition Hood center chrome nice Door latches work well Trunks locking mech works Trunk supports included
