1938 Pontiac Bussinessman's Coupe

Vehicle Description 1938 PONTIAC Bussinessman's Coupe $28,999 "Step back into an ear when automobiles were more than transportation-they were rolling statements of style, ambition, and individuality. This 1939 Pontiac Businessman's Coupe is a striking example of that spirit, blending unmistakable pre-war styling with modern drivability and a healthy does of personality. Finished in brilliant red and loaded with distinctive details, this coupe has the presence to turn heads wherever it goes. Drivetrain Under the hood is a 350 Chevrolet V8, paired with an automatic transmission for easy, enjoyable cruising. A power rack-and-pinion steering system gives the car modern steering response, while power drum brakes at all four corners provide added confidence behind the wheel. Dual exhaust gives the V8 an appropriately strong voice and completes the car's classic hot-rod character. Exterior The bright red finish immediately draws your eye, but it's the details that make this Pontiac truly special. Up front, the original Pontiac grille is crowned by its distinctive waterfall-style center section, featuring the iconic Pontiac Native American Indian head thrusting forward-a symbol that evokes the spirit of adventure, pride, and innovation that became part of the Pontiac tradition. The Art Deco Influence continues throughout the exterior with beautifully styled chrome featuring diagonal and horizontal design elements. Factory Pontiac headlights wear charming ""eyelash"" detailing along the upper rim of the headlight covers, giving the car an expression all its own. Factory bumpers, an aftermarket metal sun visor over the windshield, and dual exhaust further enhance its period-correct personality. Out back, a Continental kit-mounted spare tire adds dramatic length and presence, topped by a cover embroidered with the iconic Native American Pontiac figure. The coupe rides on thick wire-spoke wheels wrapped in P225/75R15 wide whitewall tires, giving the car a commanding stance while retaining the unmistakable character of a classic American automobile. From its bold red finish to its Art Deco chrome, distinctive grille, expressive headlights, and Continental spare, this Pontiac has loads of eye-catching personality from every angle. . Interior Inside, the red-on-red theme continues with a cabin that feels every bit as distinctive as the exterior. The red metal dashboard is accented with intricate stenciled white decorative paint, creating a wonderfully authentic period-inspired appearance. The front seat upholstery is in good condition, while the rear portion of the coupe provides the kind of spacious cargo area once intended for carrying sales materials and merchandise-a defining feature of the Business's Coupe. The dashboard has been thoughtfully upgraded with aftermarket fuel, water, temperature, oil pressure, and voltage gauges, providing important information at a glance. An aftermarket radio with speakers mounted in the kick panels adds modern entertainment, while a 130-mph speedometer and 7,000-rpm tachometer bring a performance-oriented touch to the cockpit. And when business-or perhaps a weekend adventure-calls for more room, the large trunk provides generous space for transporting merchandise, luggage, or whatever the road ahead requires. Summary This 1938 Pontiac Businessman's Coupe is not the kind of classic that quietly blends into the crowd. It is bold, expressive, and unmistakably American, combining the elegant Art Deco styling of the late 1930's with V8 power and modern conveniences that make it much more enjoyable to drive today. With its brilliant red presentation, iconic Pontiac Indian-head styling, dramatic Continental kit, wide whitewalls, wire-spoke wheels, red Art Deco-inspired interior, and practical Businessman's Coupe cargo space, this Pontiac delivers character in abundance. It is a car with storybook silhouette and the personality to match-built for someone who wants their classic to be noticed."
