Model history
The Chevrolet Master was Chevrolet's popular mid-range model in the late 1930s, combining American comfort with classic design. Its rounded shape with typical chrome details and large headlights is particularly striking. The 1939 Master was built with a focus on comfort and style – a typical representative of American automotive art of that time, which is now appreciated as a stylish pre-war classic car.

Comments of this past auction
Werden sie den TÜV noch erneuern ?
Lieber Bieter, wir haben gerade mit dem Besitzer gesprochen. Dieser verkauft das Auto aus Altersgründen. Demnach ist er gerade nicht in der Verfassung den TÜV neu zu machen. Er sagte aber ebenfalls, dass der Master so durch den TÜV kommen würde. Mit freundlichen Grüßen und viel Spaß beim Bieten. Hier ist eine einmalige Chance auf ein tolles Auto, bei dem jedes Höchstgebot zum Zuschlag führt, da es kein Mindestgebot gibt.
Technik: Der Chevrolet Master Eagle, auch Chevrolet Master genannt, war ein Mittelklasse-PKW, der in den Modelljahren 1933 bis 1942 von Chevrolet in den USA als Nachfolger des Confederate gebaut wurde. Ab 1937 ersetzte er auch das einfachere und kleinere Modell Standard, wobei die besser ausgestatteten Varianten Chevrolet Master Deluxe hießen, die einfacheren Chevrolet Master 85. Im Dezember 1932 erschien ein größerer Nachfolger des Confederate in Gestalt des Master Eagle Serie CA. Sein Radstand war um 1″ auf 2.794 mm vergrößert worden. Sein oben gesteuerte Sechszylinder-Reihenmotor hatte 3.179 cm3 Hubraum und leistete 65 bhp (48 kW) bei 2.800 min−1. Wie schon der Confederate hatte der Master Eagle ein vollsynchronisiertes Dreiganggetriebe. Die Karosserien waren aerodynamisch verbessert worden und hatten V-förmige, nach hinten geneigte Kühlermasken. Die Lüftungsklappen an beiden Seiten der Motorhaube waren schmäler und nicht mehr verchromt, sondern lackiert; die Scheinwerfer hatten verchromte Gehäuse. LG Tom
