Yeah buddy congratulations you got it =)
Well done 👏👏👏👏✌️
Simple, no-nonsense function, comfort and durability; with a subtle touch of chrome on the louvers. Though probably redone, interior fabrics appear to be authentic for the era. What a show off in red!
My grandfather drove his 1939 Chevrolet Coupe over 100,000 miles in ten years (which was a lot in those days) and never had a problem with the splash lubrication engine. He was fanatical about frequent oil changes which really helped its longevity; once the car got over about 50,000 miles it burned oil so he would keep a case in the trunk...each gas fill-up add a quart. No directional signals as they were optional in the 1930s, government required starting in the 1953 model year. Gramps drove on the Pennsylvania Turnpike the day after it opened in 1940 in that car.
Thank you so much for sharing those memories.. =)
Jay, right around that time GM released a number of educational films showing off their engineering and manufacturing capabilities. One in particular, titled MASTER HANDS shows the production of the '38 chevys. You can find it here on YT. Just excellent!
My great grandpa bought a brand new 37. He was born in 1886, first new car he ever owned until 1957. He died in 1982. I would have taken the Ford V8.
Very nice car ! I have a 1936 Plymouth p2 and the specs are similar. I like the 3 cars, simple but elegant.
WYR: 1936 Ford, and the Graham. Grahams were interesting cars, with a great story behind them. I agree with the comments in the live chat - beautiful car, but just too red. Well cared for, and I do like this styling. Thanks as always ~ Chuck
I don’t like the red on this car.. either to be honest, I think green tan toupe would look better there is a ford in the pipeline teased in yesterday’s episode that is a good color combo
Sweet choices
36 Nash has styling 😉👍
Chevy a very close second
Had a 35 standard 4 door for a couple of years 😊 started Everytime 👏👏👏
Great Episode
Happy Motoring ✌️🤠
I Jay! About 30 years ago I asked my uncle what was his most reliable car and he said 36 chevy. Another great video!
Ooooooohhhhhh I Fucking LOVE the 36 Chevy!!!! THANK YOU
So gorgeous gotta love it the red paint is stunning also
Love the old school key fob where the keys folded back into the case
My 1st car was a 1936 Master Deluxe Sport Sedan, which ment it was a 4 Door car with a built in Trunk and "Knee-Action" suspension. I Loved that old car!
1936 Chevrolet master deluxe because it looks the best! 1936 supercharged Graham inline 6. Chevrolet had nice body styles, i found a poster from an old Chevrolet dealership used as insulation in the old shop building, they really did have a nice lineup in 1936. 🚗
I just wonder if mainstream brands like Ford, Chevrolet do still carry parts for their models before WWII. It is known that Mercedes-Benz does. Maybe there is an aftermarket parts supply for those brands?
When orphan brands are featured you always stress out that engine and body parts are hard to come by.
Anyhow there is always modern parts, engine, transmissions, brake systems, lighting sets, tires for tasteful restomoding, especially, if the car is intended for daily driving or used for very long highway trips, for instance taking part in car shows all over the USA and Canada.
whoa, be careful there, the front suspension was a dubonnet system with the coil springs... if you watch jam handy's master hands you will see. very different the just shock absorbers. i only point this out because i know you like accuracy. thank you for all of this
Hi Jay! Nice Chev, there! The mid 30's GM cars were all really good looking! Perhaps the pinnacle of the GM styling efforts! That little guy would make a nice, solid family cruiser! I would think that they probably make some kind of kit to upgrade the engine to insert bearings. They do that with the Model A Ford engines all the time. The first WYR FORD all the way! LOVE the design of the 1936 Ford! Second, wanted to pick the Chev, but you put that Supercharged Graham on there and I just HAD to pick it!!
Awesome choices Thank you so much for sharing all of that information and insight greatly appreciate it.
Another very nice example of your feature car, Jay! I will take the Ford and the supercharged Graham. I've seen one of the latter in person and it was quite something.
Sweet choices I want to find a graham before the year is over
Very simple styling, almost austere. And the running boards extend under the front fender where with most cars they stop at the fender. Chevrolet was now a solid competitor with Ford with low prices making them quite popular. And this car year was new enough to survive through the war without getting scrapped like many older cars were.
WYR is this Chevy; the others look a bit frumpy to me. Round 2 is the Nash though the Graham is more interesting.
Great choice of a song for this episode, fits this car perfectly!
Great choices for the would you rather segment I want to do at least one Nash and 1 gramham before the year is over
My friends brother had a 1936 chevy 2dr sedan no trunk lid on the outside the backseat rest lifted up to get into the trunk great for drive in movie. He had a 301 cubic inch inline six out of an old army truck 55 ford v8s didn't have a chance. My friend his brother and my cousin who used to drag me along are now all deceased God rest their good souls.
Awesome information =) thank you for sharing those memories
WYR: Chevy, Graham I can't believe they got away with that 7-Up ad !
I know right I put some riskay things at the end from time to time great choices
I’d take the Chevy only because I have an emotional attachment to it. My dad had one.
Beautiful car
9:33 ralph malph car with a HEMI or is that an oldsmobile?
I love red but it really doesn't fit that car.
Totally agree
I think it'd look far better in either dark blue or forest green...grey interior with the blue, tan interior with the green.
Totally agree that color the ford was in the would you rather segment would look good on this car
😍❤️❤️ Now your talkin !!!!
=) I love 2 door sedans personally
My pick is the 1936 Chevy. Since I have one already
Awesome =)
That's a 1936 Chevrolet Master DeLuxe BUSINESS SEDAN. The "hump trunk" is the dead give-away. A "normal" sedan has a "scooped-out" ski-slope FLAT trunk. ALL GM's between 1934 and 1939 with "hump trunks" were known as "Business sedans" for salesmen to have room for "sample cases" and extra luggage room. Chrysler called a few of their cars "Business Sedans" then "DeLuxe Sedans", then ALL Chrysler products had "hump trunks" standard from 1936-'37 onwards.
I think it’s interesting All the different companies called the cars different things. But according to Chevy, according to the advertisement pieces, this is a two-door sedan.
If you don’t believe me, you can read the advertisement piece

Hy Jay. Oh my, you got it very wrong about the knee action suspension. It's not marketing hype - it was a type of independent front suspension, very unlike anything which came before or has come since. It was also called Dubonnet suspension and was only ever used by GM as far as I know, which included British Vauxhalls. It was ok when new but very awful when worn and I think by 1940 they'd stopped using it. Next time you're in that place crawl under for a look. It's really weird and very difficult to describe. Also, funny thing, but you showed the super rare 33 DeSoto a few days ago, which I'd never seen, yet in this video one was pictured in the flood photos! Also, you didn't thing the Chev's upholstery looked original, and of course it has been renewed, but it does look period correct. Finally, that windscreen wiper knob served GM well, being used also in Australian Holden's until 1955. Cheers.
Double acting shock absorbers it was said in there
That’s what the advertisement piece said it was .. I read that straight from the advertisement piece itself, and it was their marketing jargon to sell that feature.. just like Chrysler floating. Just marketing jargon.
@@What.its.like. Like I said, next time you're there, get down on the ground for a look. It's not marketing hype for shock absorbers, it's a setup you've never seen which will give you serious head scratching. Even the Wikipedia article on Dubonnet suspension struggles to describe it in either words or pictures. The first thing you'll probably notice is the front axle bolted directly to the frame with no springs in between! Wikipedia did correct me on one point though. It's use in European cars was more widespread than I had realised.
Moonlight Serenade!
That’s the song
Beautiful old car thanks for the history about the 36 Pittsburgh flood I never knew that. The wheels should be color matched to the body. It doesn't look bad in black but red would probably look better. Chevy - Chevy.
Sweet choices I didn’t know about the flood either
Jay, love the thing that you chat back at us. Now, you have one of those "OLD CHEVY" trucks, let me know if that is a "206" or, (as I think, a 216)
It should have a 216 in it but it has a 350 V8.. it had a 327 V8 when I bought it my wife told me no projects and we ended up putting an engine in that one. A good friend of mine did the work.
I’m really happy for the community that we have. It means the world to me to have an audience to interact to. I don’t understand why more people don’t do it. =)
WYR: First scenario, either the Ford, or the Chevy; second scenario is the Chevy.
Nothing to dislike about this car. It looks like it was a comfortable one to take a long trip in. Styling was simple, although I think the headlights were a nice touch with the chrome.
Sweet choices 2 door sedans from this era are so cool
36 Ford V8
36 Chevy Master D
I've made no secret about the fact that when it comes to the 30s I'm pretty much a Ford fan all the way through. But I have to admit there are some Chevys from that era that I do like and that is one of them. It looks absolutely stunning in that red.
For 1936 the choice was if you were a young family and you wanted a car you could cruise around in that was like a hot rod you would buy the Ford V8. Which in my opinion was a much better looking automobile that year
However, if you had a family already with kids that were growing up fast you might want a car with lots of room inside. In that case you would clearly go for the Chevy.
There would be no doubt that the Ford with that strong reving V8 is a faster car. That said the Chevy while not as fast would not have overheating issues nor suffer from frequent vapor locks.
Awesome choices thank you so much for sharing that insight and information =) vapor lock is a thing people don’t talk about too often but is a real issue especially when it’s hot outside I love manual choke for that reason
That front end looks so much like that of Plymouth from the next year (1937). I guess the boomers are _technically_ correct when they say "cars all look the same now," but the thing is, cars have *always* looked the same!
In ways Nowadays cars look the same for years.. the American market has more or less taken to European approach look at the original beetle. For example, they built that car for decades with little changes.
The guy at Cold War Motors has a 1937 Version, engine refreshed car not restored, go over and take a look
36 Plymouth
36 Nash
Thomasville, Ga where the railroads used to end and rich folks gathered, until Florida happened....what in the world are you doing down there?
On vacation my in laws are down here going to a spring tomorrow might do a spring episode to make awareness of them they are floridas best kept secret like it’s open information but not many know about them =)
Sweet choices
This is a very well restored car, the interior is beautiful, the old stove bolt 6 cylinder looks very nice but the choice of color does not do it for me. I would choose the Plymouth in the first scenario, and the Nash in the second one.
Awesome choices

My brother had a 1937 Master Deluxe 2 door Town Sedan . It was really good-looking. I still wish he had sold it to me when he sold it.
WYR: All of them.
NTT: Welcome To The Jungle by Guns N Roses.
Sweet choices not that song or band
@@What.its.like. Would've been crazy if I had guessed right without seeing the segment.
Haha I know right
Go with the Chevy. Looks like a tough guy's car.
Sweet choice
First pick 36 Chevy Master deluxe , second 36 Graham supercharged .
Awesome choices
@@What.its.like. Just found the color chart at the paint reference site for the 36 Chevrolet cars, and red was not offered for the cars, but was available for the trucks as a fleet color, so the previous owner picked one of the modern colors. Just glad this one wasn't restomodded, and lowered with big ugly wheels. keep finding those original 20's, 30's and 40's cars.
There was a red in the advertisement piece, but I think it was more of a maroon. This car would look really classy with maroon black fenders.
@@What.its.like. Agree with you maroon-black fenders would look sharp with WW tires. Have a magazine article of a nice 37 Chevy coupe a guy restored back original from a rust bucket and the maroon looks great on those cars, also the 36-37 coupes are my favorite body style, just very few exists factory original since so many like the Willys coupes have been turned into hot rods.
Nice. Keep em coming. Tough choices again.
Will do kohler overview
maybe you want to re-check those stats on that "206",,,, I "think" that it's a "216". Jay
The 206 was used until 1936. I believe I will definitely recheck though…
classiccarcatalogue.com/CHEVROLET_1936.html
@@What.its.like. Well Jay, when I had my '53/ 3600, I went to the LIBRARY, and checked out an OLD "Motors Manual". If I am correct, the 216, was created in 1916, and the very LAST motors of this size was used "ONLY" in the 3/4 Ton Pickups, The "235" was created in I believe , 1936, and went until 1962. I could be wrong of course, but do, please check, because 206 and 216, could be just a "booboo" / "Typo", Thanks Jay, Sincerely, Marcel, in Yuma, Az
Learned to drive on a 36 Chevy pu 😎
Sweet
If you compare the adjusted for inflation price of these average cars, we are getting ripped off today.
You know it.. the price just keeps going up because people keep buying the price will come down but it takes everyone to stop buying quality isn’t good either I personally don’t find piano black plastic as a luxury material
@@What.its.like. my fusion is plastic fantastic...
So often you give engine size in meters, but American cars were in cubic inch displacement. So for those people who want to know the CID of an engine here's the math. 61 Cid is 1L. 750 cc is 45 Cid. So 5l times 61= 305. Let's take a Ford 289, ÷ 61= 4.7L. Some rounding is done with all engine sizes.
In millimeters for people in other countries I personally don’t understand millimeters but there are people that don’t know inches just so everyone can understand the size of the car and engine displacement
@What.its.like. As you know, from time to time I share what I know about cars.
=)
Chevy and the Graham.
Sweet choices =)
Isn't this, the same as the "ZZ-Top" car? Looks so similar!
Wouldn't say no as those fellows had lots of cars but the most famous ZZ Top car is a 1933 Ford called the "Eliminator".
@@ragtopdlxzl1 Oh, Okay, thanks for correcting me....... but : looked very similar. Thanks!

You may not want to put out so much content Just in case you run out of interesting cars or engines to show and talk about,that said love what you do
Eh I won’t get tired of it I love doing this =) and I’ll never run out of cars this is just the top of the iceberg
@@What.its.like. that great to hear because I follow mr Ballan to and he has fallen away l think because he has less and less good stories to talk about
I love Mr ballen yeah I thought that too but then I realized he does a medical mystery story once a week he does a story for his podcast and then he does a story for his channel so he puts out three videos a week. Essentially he’s doing other stuff as well. He has multiple channels he’s on just about every social media platform i can think of… but he also said that he doesn’t do any of that stuff. All he does is tell the stories. He has a team of people working for him.
The trunk is nuts. 2 levels
A lot of cars from this era have layers and sections which are super cool
Black,red, chrome with biege interior, just stunning!

Too much promotion. Not enough content.
It’s not promotional, though. It talks about what this channel is about. It’s almost like reading the back of a book to get the summary of or what the book you’re reading is about
I put it on my channel showing sbc is Ford design.
