Chevrolet Master & Standard(1933 to 1942)

The Chevrolet Master & Standard was a series of cars introduced for the 1933 model year. Originally, this new family of cars was launched as the Eagle and Mercury, but in the middle of 1933, the models were renamed (Master and Standard, respectively). This family of cars was available in sedan and coupe body styles (Pickup body styles were also available, and can be found in the Chevrolet Pre-War Pickups market). The Master & Standard family of cars was powered by a 3.4L version of the Chevrolet's well established 'Stovebolt Six,' engine. The Master respresented the top Chevrolet offering at the time, while the Standard respresented the base offering. In 1937, Chevrolet shifted their lineup, with the Master now being the base trim and a new Master Deluxe becoming the premium offering. Starting in 1940, an even more upscale version of the Master Deluxe known as the Special Deluxe was introduced, and would be the top offering until production ceased due to WW2 in 1942. After the war, this family of cars was replaced by the Chevrolet Fleetmaster and Chevrolet Stylemaster.
