Leif in Calif Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Obviously, a lot more information is needed, but I think this price is pretty optimistic no matter what. https://visalia.craigslist.org/cto/d/visalia-1929-chevrolet-coupe-classic/7510062547.html Very rare car is almost all original and runs but needs some TLC. This is the very first 6 cylinder car. Clean title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Skelly Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I like it and it hasn't been hot rodded. Too bad it's so far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne sheldon Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Wheels look like from about a 1934? Wire wheels were available on Chevrolet for 1929, but were much more spindly looking. Wood wheels and steel disc were also options that year. The 19 inch steel discs I think were used in 1929, and are usually not too difficult to find. But check on that? It could have been 20 inch in 1929? Pretty good chance the steel discs would bolt right onto those hubs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Looks like a couple of layers of blue paint on there. Unless the top layer could be taken off preserving the base its not close enough to original in my book ("and I have a book"). Pretty neat car though. Completely original and the patina works on this may be worth the buy in price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are Disteel (after market) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave39MD Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Yes it was 20" in 1929. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
