    Can anyone identify the car with the nice rust patina in the center of the attached pic? It currently resides in a local boneyard.

    Thanks.

    No, Eagle wagons had rusty patina installed at the factory. That is definitely '37 Chevy.

    that's what I thought, but I think only Pontiac shared the roofline of the Chevy back then.

    '38 Chivvy was my first inclination, because a gal I knew in '57 had one, never saw it in daylight, just the outline of it parked in the dark waiting for me to go get in. :D

    I'm not sure it's a chevy, the roof doesn't flow as nice as a 37/38, and the quarter window's too rounded for a 39 (I have a 39 pontiac, same thing).
    Doesn't matter what it is, SAVE IT!
