1937 Cord Westchester For Restoration- All the hard work has been done!

The 810-812 Cord is a consensus for anyones list of the most beautiful production cars of all time! This groundbreaking design set the world on fire when it was introduced at the 1935 NY Auto Salon. People actually stood on top of other cars to get a glimpse of the Cord, which was akin to a spaceship having landed in the middle of the show floor. Sales requests were overwhelming for the relatively small Auburn Auto company and the cars were rushed to production. Many little irritating things were solved in the '37 Production year so '37 is generally considered the year to buy if you have a choice. The supercharged models with their outside exhaust pipes are the rarest and most desirable models. These cars are arguably the fastest and most drivable PreWar car there is. They handle and ride like no other Pre War car. They look like no other PreWar car. They are quite simply like no other PreWar car and quite frankly better than many cars produced long after the War ended.

This largely restored Westchester was purchased by the Seller about 12 years ago out of North Dakota. Much of the body work had been completed and supposedly the mechanicals as well, but that turned out not to be quite the case. Since acquisition the engine has been Rebuilt, the Transmission Rebuilt, the entire Brake System Rebuilt, and more, its now a Running and Driving Car. The interior had been redone by the previous owner but the front seats have been moth damaged and will need redone again prior to installation. Many missing parts have been sourced and lots of chrome has been replated. The car is believed complete.

Here we have a car well on it's way to its former glory. Nearly ready for paint and reassembly this car is perfect for the hobbiest who wants to make it his own.
