1939_Buick

Welcome to the forum What is your location?

Engine numbers for 1937 start at 3001000 8 = 80 series 33198805 is in the 1937 range To me those numbers are not stamped in the normal Buick way. Maybe a restamped engine Chassis numbers for 1937 start at 2830899 3160662 is in the 1937 range Chassis numbers for 1938 start at 3219848

Going to be hard to sell without photos. Unless you accept a very low offer

With a GM Flint body tag it is USA production. GM Canada have a different style of tag and different numbering system What is the engine number (near the distributor) And we like photos.

For 1939's S40 & S60 interior on Canadian built cars is different pattern to USA Fisher. Most noticeable on the door cards. Do not know about the larger series. And Australian built Buick's, with a local Holden body, use the Canadian interior pattern. But the interior would be Au made to increase the local manufactured content

A close up of that data plate would be interesting. And the engine serial number. Canadian engine start with W (Walkerville Ontario) USA Flint & Canadian Buick's of this era have a different numbering method I suspect when the metal was rebuilt it was not 100% to the original dimensions & shape Seems to be several interesting large series Buick's of the 30's in India

Original post was close to a year ago (Aug 22 2018) As a guess owner has sold it by now

Location? Photos? A few hundred maybe. Not thousands

To Bob top photo looks about from cars I have seen and photos I have. Early 39's had circular metal over the spare. One of my cars has that. Then they seemed to do timber as above. Have not seem the trim in the tool tray - valance area, but that may be correct. Have seem cars with a plywood cover in tool tray area, but always considered that was home made. Where is Earl when we need him?

The weekend after the BCA annual meet in Strongesville, Cleveland OH. So you may get a few stragglers from that. Maybe even me, depending on flights https://forums.aaca.org/topic/303008-2020-buick-club-national-meet-strongsville-ohio-july-15-19/

A photo of all of the fleet from a distance would be good. 😊
