About the 1937 Cord 812 Supercharged

The 812 Supercharged stands as the ultimate expression of Cord's brief but brilliant existence, a supercharged swan song that delivered genuine performance to match its stunning looks. With only 195 examples built, it's among the rarest American cars ever produced. The Schwitzer-Cummins supercharger boosted the Lycoming V8 to 170 horsepower, transforming the Cord from a beautiful cruiser into a legitimate performance machine capable of 110 mph. The distinctive external exhaust pipes announced the supercharged car's presence, while the advanced front-wheel-drive system provided superior traction compared to contemporary rear-drive rivals. Today, a 812 Supercharged represents the holy grail of American pre-war collecting, with examples routinely selling for well over $1 million. It perfectly encapsulates the innovation, artistry, and tragic brevity of one of America's most important automotive brands.
