It is a model 37 no dash, a.k.a. The .38 Chiefs Special Airweight, square butt with 3" barrel, from roughly 1982 the year the pinned barrel was discontinued. It has an alloy frame. The slightly different color of the finish between the frame and the cylinder/barrel is normal. It looks like it's in nice condition.
I will guesstimate a value in the four-hundreds.
Best of luck.

Thanks to all but just discovered a problem while cleaning her up. Where the yoke closes it looks like a crack is present under barrel? I don't remember ever seeing before and I have not shot this gun in at least 10 years. Now I have a paperweight not an airweight?
