1935 Pontiac Master Series 6 4 Door Sedan

Vehicle Description 1935 Pontiac Master Series 6 $9,000 "1935 Pontiac Master Series 6 4 Door Sedan As the United States was coming out of the economic devastation of the Great Depression, car buyers were seeking much more utility and value for their money than ever before, and found it in the 1935-1936 Pontiac. A more conservative, more practical mindset was now the order of the day. Closed cars were far more frequently ordered than open body styles, as were engines of smaller displacements, usually sixes. The new design was the brainchild of Franklin Q. Hershey, a Californian who was a designer for coach builder Walter Murphy, and more recently had come over from Hudson. For consignment, a barn find 1935 Pontiac Master Series 6 4 door sedan. A more streamlined, Art Deco machine that ushered in a design cue destined to be a trademark for the division for more than 20 years, the famed ""Silver Streak"". It will need plenty of TC to bring it back to snuff, but it could be a labor of love and time spent in your ""personal space"" as one with the project! NO TITLE-SOLD ON A BILL OF SALE ONLY Exterior Up front, the Silver Streak treatment begins as a bright band, (now sadly heavily surface rusted), of multiple ribs running from the base of the windshield and across the top of the hood, forming a somewhat streamlined waterfall grille. Complementary touches included deco-inspired trim on the hood sides and large bullet styled encased circular headlights. Legend has it that the Silver Streak design theme was inspired by a photo of a Napier race car, its oil cooler protruding through the hood, that Hershey saw in a French magazine. Below is a rusted simple curved bumper framing the bottom of the car's front end. A large curved english wheel shaped fender, almost the beginnings of the pontoon styling, frames the front tire and wheel. This moves rearward eventually hooking up with a running board and then leading to the rear fender which is a simple curve inset more input the rear bodywork. The hood top and roofline have heavy surface rust and the sides are retaining their patina and dulled black paint. The running boards have an extra plate on them, presumably to cover up rust through damage underneath although these panels are also surface rusted. 4 doors, and all the glass that is in is clear but the driver's rear glass is missing. The roofline is surface rusted and all 4 doors are black painted and are rear hinged. In back a humpback styled trunk is on and it has a wonderful bottom curve created by the rear fender lines wrapping downward and curving across the back. Another simple curved bumper, this time not as rusted, frames the bottom and the tail light casings, although the lenses are gone. 16-inch steel wheels, surface rusted, have mixed style tires wrapping them to make the car easier to move around. Interior A swing of the doors and we see no real door panels to speak of and the replacement wood panels have long since been water damaged and rotted out. A front and rear bench are in and all their coverings have been taken away by time. The headliner and side interior panels are dry rotted away revealing the structural metal. The dual eyebrow curved dash front is in need of total restoration, as are the floors and instrument panel of the dash. Drivetrain Under the hood is a 208ci Inline 6 cylinder. It has a 1 barrel carburetor and a 3 speed manual transmission. On the back is a 4.44 rear axle. The engine does not presently run and plenty of surface rust and corrosion is noted for this engine and bay. Undercarriage Heavy surface rust is vouchering all steel X framing, and stamped floor pans. The rust is heavier on the undersides of the floor boards and hangers for them. The beginnings of invasive rust holes are seen on the floor pans at various areas as well. Leaf springs are all around, and drum braking is on all 4 corners. Definitely a barn find, definitely plenty of TLC is needed for this model which does have beautiful high end Art Deco lines, and snazzy interior styling. It just needs to be brought back by the correct individual, all they'll need is ambition.
