So I am new here I just looked at a 1932 Chevrolet 2door delixe Coupe. It’s an older Restoration. What are things I should be looking at, asking the present owner, etc. is this a good cat for parades and cruises? Any special quirks these have? It has the 6 cylinder over head valve engine. Mostly original interior, exterior has been repainted. I value any and all opinions! Thank you

Hi Tom

Welcome to the best vintage Chevrolet forum on the internet!

If you car, and in particular the cooling system, is in decent shape,
your car is a GREAT candidate for parades.

I used to run my 1929 sedan in parades with no issues at all.

I'm sure you would get lots of attention. 🙂

I would recommend that you take it out for a test drive, with the owner sitting beside you.... see if you like the way it feels on the road... ask the owner if it has any mechanical issues, that he knows of, that might need repair or replacement soon.... see how it steers and brakes... and ask him what his bottom line selling price is...
these vintage cars... don't drive and handle like a modern car... so check it out and see if it is really what you want....
I like the way they put you back in time... to a slower pace of Life... as you take them out for a Joy ride.....
