GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1938 Chrysler Royal 4-Door Sedan for your consideration. This classic Chrysler is powered by a 3.7L Inline-6 engine, paired with a 3-speed manual transmission, a combination that offers a smooth and engaging driving experience. This sedan is finished in a striking black exterior that accentuates the car's timeless design and showcases the intricate details of its pre-war styling.

Stepping inside, you're greeted by a well-preserved brown cloth interior, offering a warm and inviting cabin that harks back to the golden era of American motoring. The interior design reflects the understated luxury that Chrysler was known for, featuring comfortable seating, straightforward instrumentation, and a focus on passenger comfort. The sedan's spacious four-door layout ensures plenty of room for passengers, making it ideal for leisurely drives.

The 1938 Chrysler Royal holds a significant place in automotive history, representing the brand's commitment to innovation and quality during a challenging period. Chrysler introduced the Royal series in 1937 as a mid-level offering that bridged the gap between the more economical Plymouths and the luxurious Imperials. The 1938 model saw several refinements, including a restyled front grille and updated mechanicals, which made it a favorite among buyers seeking a blend of style and performance.

The Royal's design was heavily influenced by the Art Deco movement, with its flowing lines, rounded edges, and attention to detail. The car featured advanced engineering for its time, including hydraulic brakes and an independent front suspension, which contributed to a smoother ride and enhanced safety. The Royal was also one of the first cars to offer the "Floating Power" engine mounting system, reducing engine vibrations and providing a quieter ride.

In the years leading up to World War II, the Chrysler Royal became known for its reliability and comfort, making it a popular choice for families and professionals alike. Its robust construction and elegant design have made it a cherished collectible among classic car enthusiasts, often praised for its distinctive looks and mechanical simplicity.
