Time for an all-American trio of classics — what’s your pick? In the first corner is a 1937 Cord 812 Phaeton Convertible in Ivory. Sleek with hidden headlights? Sign me up! In the second corner is a 1967 Avanti II in White. This was made after the Studebaker, which created the Avanti, closed its doors. In the final corner is a 1956-1957 @chevrolet Corvette in two-tone India Ivory and Matador Red. I’d like this if the colors were flipped. What’re y’all’s thoughts? #caroftheday #1930s #cord812 #phaeton #convertible #1950s #chevrolet #corvette #1960s #avanti #tuesdayswithtom #latepost #lastyear #collection21

Multi-Layered Inlay is finished! Super happy with my first attempt, despite some flaws in the final product. I’m happy with what I’ve learned, and will be applying these techniques to a large commission later this month. #cncrouter #yegsmallbusiness #cord812 #cordl29

Tim Burton’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas” was (and remains) such a unique take on a Christmas movie due to how it combined elements of both Halloween and Christmastime. I guess it only fits then, that the most horror movie-esque production car is rounding off the top of my Christmas list this year. The Cord 810/812 is really a strange thing. They had front wheel drive and pop up headlights in the 1930’s, and were absolutely decades ahead of their time. At the same time, however, Cord was struggling severely due to the Great Depression, and had to cut costs so much that the front and rear doors were interchangeable with eachother, so that they didn’t have to spend money on separate door tools. For a car that had as massive of an identity crisis between futuristic and last-ditch as the Cord did, it’s a miracle that they turned out to be so cool. Aside from a few examples of one-off European coachbuilt cars of the decade, I genuinely do believe the Cords were the prettiest cars of the 1930’s, with no real comparison against them. The coffin-shaped hood was enough to make even Dracula jealous, and the whole entire car just reeks with aeronautical styling. So, should anyone be looking to be generous this year, I think this one had a price tag of $70,000? Perfect gift to show up in the front yard for me on Christmas Day. #car #cars #carshow #carshows #carshowseason #carspotting #carspotter #carspotters #automotive #automotivephotography #automotivedesign #automotivephotographer #automotiveengineering #cord #cord812 #cord810 #classiccars #classiccar #classiccarsdaily #classiccarspotting #classiccarsworld

A 1937 Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman at the Richmond AACA car show. The Cord was an instant hit on its debut at the 1935 New York Auto Show with its low-slung body and clean lines, featuring a radically new hood design, pop-up headlights, and hidden hinges. It was the first American-designed and built front wheel drive car with independent front suspension. With the Schwitzer-Cummins centrifugal supercharger mated to the 288 c.i . Lycoming V8 engine, the output was increased from 125 hp to 195 hp. This enabled Ab Jenkins to average 101.72 mph for 24 hours on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Only 64 of this model were built, with 30 believed to still exist. #aacarichmond #aaca #cord #cord812 #supercharged #lycoming #straight6 #driven #takeittothetrack #photoaday #getoutanddrive #carphotography #drivevintage #carvintage #driveclassics #carsofinstagram #motorwitness

Hupmobile Skylark 1939 - 1941 This was an unsuccessful attempt by Hupmobile and Graham to build a rear wheel drive version of the Cord 810/812 on a shorter wheelbase. The production four-door sedans were called Hupmobile Skylark and Graham Hollywood respectively. A 115 inch wheelbase was used, 10 inches shorter than that of the original Cord. From cowl back, the production cars were virtually the same as the Cord Westchester sedans. The front end of the cars was designed by John Tjaarda. Plans were made to manufacture two-door phaetons (convertible sedan). In total, Hupmobile built only 319 cars while Graham built 1597 - 1859 cars (according to different sources). Thus, these cars are even more rare than the Cords.

SOLD!! The Cord 810 and 812 were also the first production cars to feature hidden / pop-up headlights. Additionally, the radical new styling of its nose completely replaced the traditional radiator grille, in favor of horizontal louvers, that curved all around the sides of the nose, earning the car's styling the nickname of 'coffin nose'. #cord #812 #supercharged #cord812 #118diecast #118scale #diecastofinstagram #diecastcars #diecastcollector #silver #vintagecar #vintage #historical #history #america #popupheadlights #coffin #amazingcars247 #amazingcars #ctcarscene #ctcarspotter

#FeatureFriday: 1937 Cord 812 The 1936 and 1937 #Cord810 and #Cord812 are among the most iconic 1930s automotive designs, and this one came from the hand of the legendary Gordon Buehrig. Among the stand out features are the "coffin-nose" grille, pop up headlights and engine turned dash. Developed to be the "baby Duesenburg," engineering and financial issues at Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg prevented the car from ever taking off and only 1,066 ever left the assembly line before the company closed.

Cord Convertible Coupe "Sportsman", 1936-37 The car is often labeled the “Sportsman,” stemming from its designation in factory literature as a "Sportsman's Convertible Coupe," a title referring more to the driver than the car itself.

Sunrise on the Mall with the 2023 inductees to the National Historic Vehicle Register Amelia Earhart's 1937 Cord 812 Convertible Phaeton Sedan and a 1952 Porsche America Roadster (Type 540). The @hagertydriversfoundation selects cars that are culturally significant in the history of the country. One of Porsche’s first factory-built race cars, the Type 540 was nicknamed the America Roadster as the model was conceived thanks to the influence of John von Neumann and Max Hoffman for the U.S. market. The America Roadster and the influence of Neumann and Hoffman helped launch Porsche's success and longstanding heritage as a competition leader in the U.S. Amelia Earhart acquired this Cord 812 Phaeton less than a year before she, navigator Fred Noonan and her Lockheed 10E Electra disappeared over the South Pacific in 1937. #AmeliaEarhart #Cord812 #porsche #porscheclassic #porschelife #porsche540 #nationalhistoricvehicleregister #carsatthecapital #hagertydriversfoundation #goldenhour #starburst #sunrise #sunrise #instaphoto #igs_america #washingtondc #DC #igdc #popville #fotodc #exposeddc #dctography #dcfocused #weclickdc #dcliving #instaphoto #acreativedc #washmagphoto #capitalregionusa

1937 Cord 812 Phaeton Convertible With such a unique display of an even more historic car I thought I’d try something new. Usually as Automotive photographers we try and capture photos with little to no people in them. But it’s the complete opposite in this situation, the display draws huge crowds from all over so I thought I’d capture a long exposure of everyone admiring the Cord 812. Here’s what I ended up with. I think it turned out pretty well. I also shot a time-lapse before this and managed to catch the lights turning on. Enjoy! #carsatthecaptial #hagerty #cord812 #AmeliaEarhart #hagertydriversfoundation #cord812convertible #phaetonsedan #aviation #nationalmall #igdc #uscapitol #nationalhistoricvehicleregister #lavinerestorations #acdmuseum #jbscollection #vintagecar #classiccar #prewarcar #historiccar #neverstopdriving #drivehistory #automotiveart #nikonphotography #carlifestlye #dupontregistry #itswhitenoise #automotivephotography #amazingcars247

1937 Cord 812 Phaeton Convertible Ladies and Gentlemen it’s that time of year again. Hagerty has another historical car on display at the Capital. This time it’s Amelia Earhart’s long lost Cord 812 Convertible Phaeton Sedan. It is car number 33 on the National Historic Vehicle Register. I love the idea of having a historic car on display at the Nations Capital. Displayed perfectly between the U.S. Capitol and the Washington monument making for some eye catching photographs. The cars look incredible when it’s dark out and they’re all lit up beautifully. It draws crowds from all over. It allows me to try some new techniques with my photography, long exposures and time-lapse’s. If you have the opportunity I highly recommend going to check it out! #carsatthecaptial #hagerty #cord812 #AmeliaEarhart #hagertydriversfoundation #cord812convertible #phaetonsedan #aviation #nationalmall #igdc #uscapitol #nationalhistoricvehicleregister #lavinerestorations #acdmuseum #jbscollection #vintagecar #classiccar #historiccar #neverstopdriving #drivehistory #automotiveart #nikonphotography #carlifestlye #dupontregistry #itswhitenoise #automotivephotography #amazingcars247

Posted @withregram • @old_glory_garage For Sale $850 obo Fog King fog lights. This absolutely beautiful pair of lights is completely original and deserves to be on a nice car and not my shelf. They must have been early take offs because the chrome is nearly scratch free and bright. The original paint on the mounting brakets is just as nice as the chrome and mostly intact with original sheen. The original striped lenses are clear and in great shape. The lenses alone are very hard to find, let alone with the rest of the light being in such great condition. What makes these even cooler is that these are considered a factory accessory for Cord 810, 812, and Auburn speedster.

1937’ Cord 812 Beverly Sedan Bustleback (C96-FB) The 1937 Cord 812 Beverly Sedan Bustleback (C96-FB) is a unique and distinctive automobile that was produced by the American automaker Cord. The Cord 812 series is renowned for its innovative design and advanced features, and the Bustleback variant stands out with its distinctive rear-end styling. The term "bustleback" refers to the rear-end design of the car, which features a rounded, protruding trunk area that gives the car a distinctive and unconventional appearance. The Cord 812 Beverly Sedan Bustleback is characterized by its sleek, streamlined body and Art Deco-inspired design elements. One of the standout features of the Cord 812 series was its front-wheel drive layout, which was uncommon for its time and contributed to improved traction and handling. The 812 series was powered by a V8 engine that produced around 125 horsepower, which was quite impressive for the era. The Cord 812 Beverly Sedan Bustleback boasted other advanced features as well, including hidden headlights that were operated by an innovative hand-crank mechanism, a feature that garnered attention and added to the car's unique appeal. Despite its innovative design and features, the Cord 812 series faced challenges related to production delays and quality issues. The Great Depression and financial difficulties also impacted the car's sales numbers. As a result, the production of the Cord 812 series was relatively short-lived, with production ending in 1937. Today, the Cord 812 Beverly Sedan Bustleback is a sought-after collector's item due to its rarity, distinctive design, and historical significance as an example of innovative automotive engineering from the 1930s. #Машина #машины #car #cars #drive #drive2 #driver #автомир #автоновости #carspotting #carspotted #auto #instacar #instacars #carstagram #cool #coolcar #coolcars #тачка #тачки #cord #cord812 #carmuseum #retrocar #retrocars #vintagecar #vintagecars #classiccar #classiccars #retro

1937’ Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman (C92-FC) The 1937 Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman (C92-FC) was a remarkable automobile known for its striking design and innovative features. It was part of the Cord 810/812 range, produced by the Auburn Automobile Company. The 812 model boasted a number of groundbreaking elements for its time, including hidden headlights that were controlled mechanically and could be raised or lowered from the dashboard. This gave the car a sleek, uninterrupted front-end appearance. Under the hood, the Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman was equipped with a supercharged 4.7-liter V8 engine, delivering impressive power and performance. The supercharger boosted the engine's output, making it one of the first American cars to offer forced induction. The car's body design was characterized by its aerodynamic shape, defined by smooth curves and a distinctive coffin-nose grille. The Sportsman variant was a convertible model, featuring a folding soft top that added to its allure. While the Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman was ahead of its time in terms of design and engineering, it was produced during a challenging period marked by the Great Depression. Despite its innovative features and stylish appearance, the economic climate limited its production and overall success in the market. Today, the Cord 812 Supercharged Sportsman remains a sought-after collector's item due to its unique and influential design, as well as its significance in automotive history. #Машина #машины #car #cars #drive #drive2 #driver #автомир #автоновости #carspotting #carspotted #auto #instacar #instacars #carstagram #cool #coolcar #coolcars #тачка #тачки #cord #cord812 #carmuseum #retrocar #retrocars #retro #vintage #vintagecar #vintagecars #supercharged

A few odds and ends from the #classicmotorsportskickoffcarshow , including this little Messerschmitt KR200 microcar. This is what you build when you find yourself on the losing side of a world war and you’re not allowed to build airplanes but your country still needs transportation. There was also a stunning ‘coffin nose’ 1937 Cord 812 convertible, a classic American design by Gordon Buehrig. Then there was a Formosa 120, a Triumph-powered 50s sports car and an Alfa Romeo Giulia. #messerschmitt #messerschmittkr200 #microcar #cord #cord812 #formosa120gr #alfa #alfaromeo #alfaromeogiulia #freddrives #fredstillplayswithcars #gearheadfredsgarage #carsofinstagram #instacars #cargeek #montereycarweek2023

Before meeting its end, the Tucker Corporation was poised to change the automotive world. The fabled Tucker 48 was a revolutionary sedan that was eons ahead of its competition, and frankly, might not have had any legitimate competition...had it ultimately reached mass production. Its creator, Preston Tucker, was a revolutionary demi-god of the automotive atmosphere. Tucker stood in the stagnant waters of 1940s automotive technology reeling in the forbidden concept of innovation, like some elusive marlin who dared to shoot out of those same murky waters. Preston Tucker had a dream to create his own brand of car, one that wasn't afraid to try new ideas. August 12, 1988…35 years ago today…”Tucker: The Man and His Dream” was released in theatres. Check it out to learn more about Preston Tucker and his legacy! 🎥 While we do not have a Tucker at Steele Wheels, we do have a Cord 812, from which Tucker ‘borrowed’ his first transmissions and a stylist!
