A drag strip is a place filled with high performance, speed, and good times. Building one's cars to be the fastest at a ¼ mile has grown from a pastime to a competitive sport where every millisecond matters. If you do visit a drag strip frequently, one type of car you sure won't miss out on is the old street gassers. Built to rocket down the straights, a street gasser is a performance machine disguised as a car from the 30s. With a big place in the drag race scene owning a gasser means you get the best of both worlds, 30s design and one mean hot rod that scares modern cars when let loose. Want to get in on the fun? This 1938 Chevrolet Couoe Street Gasser we have today is one neat build and ready to provide smiles as you thrash down a ¼ mile.
Exterior and Interior
The 30s design on this 1938 Chevrolet Coupe Street Gasser is brought to life with a unique Chrysler "Prowler" paint exterior. The owner reports that the car has seen a total restoration and features new glass too. The rear fenders have been widened by 3 inches for tire clearance and in place are Rocker Launcher Runner wheels which are wrapped with Mikey Thompson tires. While it's a drag strip weapon, the tan interior on this 1938 Chevrolet Coupe Street Gasser provides some comforts. It’s reported to be new and features a mix of 30s interior features and modern upgrades, including a new tilt steering wheel, meter cluster, and aftermarket stereo.
Engine
A flashy exterior is not the only factor that makes a Street Gasser special; what lies under the hood is perhaps its most important feature. Powering this 1938 Chevrolet Coupe Street Gasser is a 383ci stroker engine built on a 350 block with a 0.30 SCAT rotating assembly. The engine also sees modifications, including an Erson cam, 140-amp alternator, IDIDIT steering column, and a straight axle. Further, the engine is safeguarded by the addition of a friction modifier. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through a Borg-Warner T-10 transmission which is reported to be rebuilt and sport a New McLeod clutch as well. Handling is better with a Fully boxed frame with QA1 Coilover shocks, and stopping power is increased through 4-piston calipers and 11-inch rotors.
