Finished in a vibrant red exterior with just the right amount of hot rod attitude, this 1938 Chevrolet Coupe is a beautifully executed street rod that blends classic pre-war styling with dependable modern performance. The body has a fantastic stance, sitting low over charcoal five-spoke wheels that perfectly complement the flowing fenders and iconic Chevrolet grille. Under current ownership for the past nine years, this Coupe has been meticulously cared for and remains exceptionally clean throughout. The paint presents beautifully, while the underside and engine bay are equally tidy, reflecting the quality of the build and the pride of ownership.

Power comes from a freshly rebuilt 400ci Chevrolet V8 paired with a 700R4 four-speed automatic overdrive transmission, offering strong performance along with comfortable highway cruising. The engine is equipped with aluminum cylinder heads, a performance camshaft, headers, and other supporting upgrades, though the exact builder and camshaft specifications are unknown. Out back is a durable Ford 8-inch rear axle with 3.55 Posi-traction gearing, creating a combination that’s equally enjoyable around town or on longer road trips.

Built with modern drivability in mind, the chassis features a Mustang II independent front suspension with narrowed tubular control arms, front disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and power steering for confident handling. Power brakes provide excellent stopping capability, while the suspension setup gives the car a composed ride without sacrificing its aggressive street rod appearance.

Inside, you’ll find a clean and comfortable two-tone gray leather interior that complements the exterior perfectly. Modern amenities include air conditioning, New Relics power windows and door components, and a full set of Dolphin gauges, giving the cabin a refined feel while maintaining the classic character of the car. Every detail has been thoughtfully executed, making this Coupe just as enjoyable behind the wheel as it is to admire.

Whether you’re looking for a dependable weekend cruiser, a local show winner, or a turn-key street rod that needs nothing but a new owner, this 1938 Chevrolet Coupe delivers. With its quality build, proven ownership history, modern driving manners, and unmistakable style, it is ready to be enjoyed from day one.
