1937 Cord 812 Supercharged Phaeton. Fully Restored Car in Excellent Condition

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 Very nicely restored example, is in excellent condition throughout and is one of the better examples we have had the opportunity to represent. The car presents well in all respects, the paint is exceptional, the chrome without fault, the interior and top are beautifully executed, and the car runs and drives well. Finished in the striking and desirable Maroon with Tan Full Leather interior, and Tan Top, this car checks all the boxes. Equipped with the desirable 'Richardson Conversion" that replaces problematic original Front Wheel Drive components with more modern GM Parts, an Auxiliary Fan, and Alloy Wheels, this car is set up for reliability and touring. Phaetons are the most drivable and usable when it comes to Open Cords, you can take along a few passengers in style and get there in a hurry! No collection is complete without an 810/812 Cord.

The 812 Cord is one of the most beautiful production cars of all time, and they are quite simply the best driving pre War car there is.
