Description of 1937 Cadillac LaSalle Chrome |
1937 Lasalle series 50 This was a restoration project that was halted by the owners death, i have put it on a lift to get a good look at it and give the best description i can..from the information i received is that the car was stripped down to nothing but the frame and wheels to be restored, the frame was coated, this list is of items that appear to have been replaced: shocks, brakes and brake lines, fuel tank and fuel lines, electric fuel pump, and springs, the exhaust is also not the original and was obviously replaced and is in good condition, i see no rot on the underside of the car. lots of new nuts and bolts are seen. the running boards appear to have been restored. the wiring has all been replaced with an original type correct wore harness and is all in place, some of it still needs to be hooked up, such as a few wires under the dash, under the hood, and tail light wires, again they are all in place and just need to be attached,,front door panels were in the trunk, there is not carpet and no headliner. the seats appear to be in decent condition..glove box door is in a box as well as what looks like an original type heater box and fan..a few exterior moulding pieces are in the trunk as well...it looks like almost everything is there, there may be one or 2 small items you will need but not 100% certain, again, it appears most everything is there..the engine bay was painted at the time the car was painted with the engine and trans out, the engine has excellent compression and appears to have been apart for rebuilt as well as the trans and entire brake system, there are new rubber lines to all the wheels installed. as far as engine function, i have so far put a battery in it and it cranks over smooth, the tires appear fairly new and have been full the entire time with no leaks, the fuel tank appears to have been replaced, the fuel plug was out so the tank was empty and appears clean inside, i put the plug back and fresh fuel in it....i would argue that there has already been thousands and thousands of dollars into it already. the paint is pretty nice with some chips and minor scratches from tight garage space and storage for a little while but does polish up very nicely.the chrome bumpers have what looks like primer on them but the bumper guards and center "lasalle" section shines up nice.front end parts all appear to be in great condition. As i said, the seats look decent, there are 2 front panels to go with it, one rear panel is on the car, and boxes of clips, handle, regulators and window surrounds,,most of the window channel felt looks to have been replaced as well as some of the glass. there is new wind lace which will go with it..the car has those great optional fender mount spares that really make these classy looking cars for parades, wedding and show ! a great car for those cadillac and lasalle collectors that has had a ton of time and money put into it and needs completion, there is also a bolt of fabric with it that is the same as that used on the panels to assist in completion..it is for sale locally so i do reserve the right to cancel the listing at any time. |
