The streamlined shape of the Chrysler Airflow was created with the help of wind tunnel research. It has a semi-unitary 'truss bridge' chassis that was based on contemporary aircraft construction principles. By positioning the eight-cylinder engine directly over the front axle, the seats were able to be placed within the car's wheelbase. This allowed for a roomy passenger compartment and a very smooth ride.
This C-1 Airflow is one of just 307 coupes produced and it is believed that only six remain in existence. A complete, body-off restoration was completed in 2005 and it remains flawless in every detail. It is painted black and there is a driver's side spotlight, dual rearview mirrors, and wide whitewall tires. There is a set of full chrome disc-type wheels with chrome trim rings. The interior features tan cloth upholstery.
This car earned its AACA Junior and Senior First Prize awards in 2007 and a Best in Show at the 2007 Airflow Club of America national meeting. In 2009, this 1935 Chrysler C-1 Airflow Eight Coupe was offered for sale at the Automobiles of Amelia Island Auction presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $80,000-$100,000. The lot failed to sell after achieving a high bid of $62,500.By Daniel Vaughan | Mar 2009
