Would you know if it was a Canadian (Chevy bodied) car?
I have just recently done so and await a response. I wanted to do some more research so I could ask my questions with a more solid background...
Thank you I will give them a try.
If it has an overhead valve engine it is a Canadian car. A split back window is a series 26 (American design boy and frame) a single back window...
I do have another question for you. Does your data show two Canadian Pontiac series or three in 38? The reason I ask is that I have two owners...
Not a problem. It was a very fair question. I would love someone to provide a document showing the production number. I wonder if there are any...
I cannot prove my production numbers, I have spoken to a couple people who own a special six and when I told them I owned a coupe they told me the...
Correct no Flathead engines for the Canadians. 1938 was the first year for this and even then only one of the two series of Pontiacs used the...
It was just a way to lower the sale price and to avoid import taxes which were very high at the time. We decided to improve the Pontiac with an...
I do not know but all of the 38 Pontiacs I have found photos of in other countries has been the American body type so they could be Canadian...
Other than than a notch at the top of the cowl (to clear the wide hood center strip) and the dash being cut out for the bigger Pontiac speedometer...
Yes it is a 38 Pontiac and looks to be a coupe. I would need to see the side or back to see if it is a Canadian special six or the bigger American...
The wheelbase is shorter than the USA models. The area behind the seat on the USA models has been removed. I have not tried to interchange the...
I am trying to find out how many of the roughly 260 Canadian Pontiac Special six coupes built are still left and would love a photo of any that...
Thanks for the welcome. Yes it is a 33 Willys... I sold it about 2004 and my camera was not very good...
Garage is never big enough...[ATTACH]
When I was about 12 the guy next door had borrowed his friends Model A coupe that was chopped , channeled and powered by a chrome small block....
[IMG] I saw this one for sale locally
I have had enough problems in the past with performance mufflers on a blown big block that I cannot consider open pipes
I have seen cars that were "waiting to be restored" only to rot into the ground and go to scrap. I think it never hurts to ask as most people have...
With the 37 / 38 Chevy cars the handles will mount on either side so you can move the locking handles or install two of them to have a lock on...
I believe that they made about 260 of the coupes
Nice looking car. Best of luck on your search
With a light car like your T I cannot see you having any issues with the stock case

Hi KB... I saw on another thread that you were parting out some 37/38 Chevies. I am new to the HAMB and it would not let me reply there. I need a...
