I have a 1937 Chrysler Royal. I can't cross-reference that number, is it foreign id? Do you have a picture? Is it a coupe, sedan, two-door, four door?

It is a sedan 4 door. I took this number in the right door channel(??????). It is written Serial No..

If you know how many of those vehicule were built, I want to know.

Thanks for answering my questions,

Ben

Bennyf....I also like mymolalla cant make that serial # for a chrysler ,i have a list of the Fedco numbering system that chrysler used back then, and the only way that # comes up is through Plymouth. Most Chrysler vehicles that were exported to another country back then were re badged Plymouths with upgraded upholstery etc. What does your engine # start with if it is a 37 Plymouth bodied Chrysler it will start with either p3 or p4 if Chrysler it should be c16 for the royal series

Hi,

I didn't check this because it's not my car yet. I want to buy it. That's why I want so much informations. I want to know if this car is worth buying. If someone can tell me what I need to check before buying this car, I would be happy. Do you have an idea how much should I pay for? It is a Chrysler Royal 1937, complete, not running, need complete restoration, a little rust thru body, good frame, all the glasses are intact, spare front, spare interior, spare motor plus 5 transmission, approx. 6 pressure plate, anyway...lots of spare parts. He is selling with the Chrysler a Plymouth 1935 with a lot of work to do. I think the car made rollovers but the car is complete. He is selling the 2 cars for 3000$CAN, is it a good deal ?

Thanks a lot,

Ben

Your 1937 Chrysler Royal was built in Canada, which is why it does not appear in any American lists. And as it is 1937 model, it does not have a FEDCO number, which Chrysler last used in 1930.

Canadian 1937 Chrysler serial numbers :

C16 - Royal : 9706386 to 9709264

C14 - Imperial : 9756331 to 9756825

Canadian prices for the 1937 Chrysler Royal :

2-door Business coupe : $930

2-door Rumble seat coupe : $995

2-door touring sedan : $1015

4-door touring sedan : $1065

2-door convertible coupe (imported) : $1175

4-door convertible sedan (imported) : $1595

For the long-wheelbase (132") models :

4-door, 7-passenger, sedan : $1340

Standard equipment included very little - two taillamps. two inside sunvisors, 3-speed manual transmission, etc.

Overdrive was a $50 option. The heater was also optional.

The engine in your Chrysler, if the engine number starts with C16, was built in Detroit, as was the transmission and rear axle.

Thanks a lot Bill W., it is very useful but if you can tell me if it is a good deal to buy those two cars, it would help even more

Can I count on that picture? Is it a good reference?

You, guys are great! Found this thread by accident. I have two '37 Royals. One is original except for paint, tires and a couple windows. Even have the original upholstery and rear window shade. The other I bought for parts but the engine purrs so I'm going to restore when I have time. I'll be back when I have problems. Gotta find a leak in the brake line now.
