1939 Supercharged Sharknosed Graham Sedan. It has just come out of many years of heated dry storage. Other than a funky paint job and a funky dash treatment and interior this car is remarkably original yet. It has had its share of bumps and grinds over the years but it is what it is, a very rare art deco car which has very good “bones”. It is a great restoration prospect or would make an awesome street rod. All of the important parts are there such as the correct motor, transmission and running gear, the correct supercharger, correct lights, bumpers, grille guard and bumper guards, seats and steering wheel, correct speedo and clock, interior and exterior handles, wheels and hubcaps, correct factory fender skirts, and correct exterior “Art Deco” trim and hood ornament. The hard to find headlight lenses are in excellent condition. The cast art deco trim pieces are in great condition with no cracks or broken pieces. The bumpers and guards have been painted silver by the previous owner as obviously a cheaper way to fix them, but at least the paint has preserved the base metal material and all pieces will chrome plate successfully. The car came out of Oklahoma many years ago. It appears to be very rust free. The odometer is not legible except for one numeral which is a 7. It definitely has more than 7 miles on it though. As you may know if you follow these cars the Sharknosed body style was made in 1938, 1939 and early 1940 when the Hollywood Graham body style fazed the Sharknosed body style out. The underside of the car is wearing just dirty grimy road wear. Email me with any of your questions.
