1931 Chevrolet Other

I have a one of a kind 1931 Chevy roadster project for sale. I have been collecting parts for this hotrod for 10 years. I have some rare speed parts for the Cadillac 346 flathead engine that goes with it. As you know, the Chevy roadsters are rare and seeing one made into a hotrod is like unicorn status. This car has some damage to the wood, but I was going to replace it all with metal anyway. The body is pretty rust free, a nice one to work with. The windshield will need some work but it is all there. The grill is a 1933 chevy and it is really nice. The frame is straight and solid, all stock, no mods yet. The engine is a 346 Cadillac flathead that was completely rebuilt and is ready to go. It has some custom stainless water necks I had made for it and some custom valley covers. I have a Burrell dual carb intake and a set of Edmunds finned aluminum heads for it. The heads are nice and straight with no cracks or corroded areas. It also comes with two 1937 LaSalle top shift transmissions, very rare. They spin and the gears are nice in both of them, and it comes with a NOS input shaft and synchro. To back that up I have a 1940 LaSalle rear end along with all the mounts for the transmission and the rear end. I have a ton of engine parts and spares and a custom built "genernator" to fit with the Burrell dual carb intake. If you know your hotrods you should know what all this stuff is worth. I have a good clean Illinois title to go with it too. Here is your chance to build something nobody else has!

Click the extra pictures link, I added a couple pics of old Ford roadsters with flathead caddys in them. My favorite part is the exhaust on these engines.
Stock specs on this cadillac engine are 346ci - 150HP - 300 lb/ft torque, it will be more since the rebuild is .40 over and will have dual carbs and the high compression edmunds heads. These engines are super smooth and will pull in this roadster like mad with all that torque. Way bigger and badder than a ford flattie.
I also have a bunch of manuals and spec documents for all the Cadillac and LaSalle parts.
