23 DAYS UNTIL SCOTTSDALE: 1936 CHRYSLER AIRFLOW CUSTOM

This 1936 Chrysler Airflow Custom is one of more than 140 vehicles from the Ron Pratte Collection crossing the block at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in January.

By 1934, the Chrysler Airflow was introduced to the market and sold through 1937. The aerodynamics concept was so advanced, that after four years the buying public still hadn’t caught up to this otherworldly image and sales dwindled. Throughout the rest of the ’30s, most Chryslers looked like their design had taken a step backward. You could say it was the industry’s first attempt at retro-styling. The fact remains, the Chrysler Airflow opened the door to the future of automotive design, and imaginative engineers have been charging through it ever since.

This 1936 Chrysler Airflow Custom (Lot #2521) has won over 35 prestigious https://premier-pharmacy.com/product-category/skin-care/ awards, including the $20,000 Gold Award in Tulsa, Okla. One of only four remaining in the United States today, this car has taken the original concept to an entirely different dimension. It features a completely new chassis, modern underpinnings and the performance only a V10 Viper engine can provide.

This ‘36 Chrysler Airflow (Lot #2521) will cross the auction block in Scottsdale on Saturday, Jan. 17.

Ron Pratte’s prestigious collection of automobilia will kick off the 44th Annual Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction beginning Saturday, Jan. 10 at 9 a.m. and running through Tuesday, Jan. 13 at 1 p.m. Pratte’s vehicles first cross the block at 4 p.m. on Tuesday with lot numbers 2000 through 2109 and will continue with lot numbers 2500 through 2530 on Saturday, Jan. 17.
