That's not a Master coupe it's a Master Sport Sedan. The coupes have no back seat. All Sedans do. The coupes have a short cab behind which it would have either a trunk or a rumble seat. The Sport Sedan took the place of the older Coach models with a back seat but with the added built in trunk. Many older cars did not have a built in trunk like the previous coach models. It's confusing to people today because many of these body shapes are completely gone. The Chevy Master was the big chassis and the Standard on a smaller, cheaper chassis an idea suited for the great depression. The dash throttle was to bump up the RPM when warming. Later carburetors had a throttle cam on the choke linkage. Your music is from the 1890s.

A beautiful piece of rolling 1930's art-deco machinery and extraordinarily well preserved. By the way, that model is not a coupe. It's a 2-door sedan, which was the biggest selling and most common 1930's body style found today. The coupe has the small roof with the small opera windows and either storage or jump seats in the rear. The A card was from the WWII years. The heater was a genuine Chevrolet extra cost accessory, although many types could be bought from different companies. The optional radio was the same way. I'd install one in the dash if I had it. I'd give my arm to cruise a quiet country road in that!

When I was a kid in the late 40's, my Father had an old '39 Chevy parked in the yard. It ran at one time but when I had it, it was my stage coach. I'd tie an old clothes line to the hood ornament and sit on the roof aand play coyboys and indians.
As I got older, I learned to shift gears in that old '39. My father finally gave it away, just to get it off the property. Wish he had saved it for me.
Thanks for bringing back some fond memories.
BTW: your engine: 3. 4L OHV I-6, 79-80 hp, 155-156 lb-ft.

Grandpa did you used to drive a car?
You mean you had to physically move leavers and peddles, wow that must have been hard.
I just have to sit and my car flys me to my destination, while i talk to my friends in 3 dimensional relativity. food is supplied in the rehydration unit.
Through the subscription service I'm in I have a fly car 24 7 365.
Wow. It must have been something to drive.

Thanks for sharing this. I have a soft spot for thirties cars. Styling was so graceful, with simply elegant details - even on the economy models. No extra gadgets or gingerbread. Minimalism before anyone had that concept. I was born in '49 and when a kid I still saw a few thirty-something survivors. Even then they fascinated me.
Again, thanks.

Can anyone tell me what the most inexpensive or best diagnosis tool available is? Are the expensive ones better?
Name, Brand availability model, age, functionality, is one any better than another? Do they plug and play at all? Do you need to update them? If So How often?

That gas sticker was from WW2 and the A was hard to get most had a B the A would allow you to buy more gas per month than a B ticket. I remember how hard it was for Dad to get enough gas to go to work. Speed Limit was 35 mph.

lots of service points but super accessible, don't have to tear half the car apart to get to something. Beautiful car btw, love the underside too, just original and used but very well preserved, not restored to new, love it.

Hard to believe that's a New York car. Probably kept in a garage 8 months out of the year. LOVE those old cars from the 30's to the 50's. Cars and trucks nowadays are nothing more than overpriced, imported plastic.
