Vehicle Description
When you want a '20s-style classic that's more distinct than a
Model A, the Chevy is the right way to go. But nearly 90 years
later, we are reminded that not all were created equal or treated
the same. That's why we get excited about this 1928 Chevrolet
Cabriolet Sport. It's a droptop rumble-seat classic that owes its
stellar presentation to being under the care of the same family for
half of its life.
The restoration phots show that this might even be the original
color combo for the car... and this is exactly how we would want a
1920s machine to look. The maroon and black are perfect complement
colors, especially in their high-gloss finish. And the streak of
yellow running the whole profile and inside the color-match solid
wheels absolutely makes this one look jaunty. But as you get
closer, it really impresses with the details. Everything seems
correctly in place from the landau bars on the soft top, to the
original glass lamp covers.
Peek inside and you'll see the seats and door panels have been
restored in a great looking and durable black vinyl. The exterior
color scheme continues on this dashboard, including the
pinstriping. All the gauges in the bright center panel look great,
and the three-speed manual gearstick has a purposeful feel. The
four-spoke wood wheel was purely functional decades ago, but today
it is beautifully artistic. This open top cabriolet is the ideal
sunny day friend, and if you have more than one companion on your
ambling road trips, there's even a rumble seat to complete the
great vintage profile.
A classic like this never needs a radio because the motor own
music. The 107 cubic-inch four-cylinder gives off an industrial
symphony of simplicity. It is a rhythmic chug that feels like being
in charge of a mini locomotive as the tempo increases with the
acceleration. The ride is another exercise in minimalism. Leaf
springs, solid wheels, and bias ply tires are far from modern,
which makes them perfect in this time capsule convertible. The full
experience of being behind the wheel is to feel rolling
history.
The full picture file, especially the undercarriage photos, is all
the proof you need that this was a family favorite that received a
careful restoration. It's an authentic part of history that you'll
love for everything from a Saturday parade to a Sunday cruise.
